Yes it's definitely a flash issue.  I will replace the apostrophes in
the strings with &#39; before database insert and let you know how
that works!

Don't replace the single quotes in the database. Use the htmlentities() function on the output with the ENT_QUOTES option. This will replace the quotes (and other symbols) with the appropriate "&" strings.

If memory serves me right, Flash doesn't adhere to the HTML or ASCII entities, at least it didn't a few years back when I ran into this issue. What I did is replace the characters with the ones that Flash understands before writing it to the database alongside with the properly escaped 'real' string. In my case the strings were pulled from an XML by Flash and not from a database, so that and the fact that my encounters are years past may put a different spin on this. So if you get something, but not what you expected, this could be the reason why.
