Is this "escaping" that you guys have been talking about what you use to filter acceptable data into textbox form?

The filter functions give you many options for filtering and validating user input:
http://php.net/filter-var

You should have access to the filter extension. It gets built by default in PHP5.2+.

All of the different options for the third parameter are on this page:
http://php.net/filter

Note that they use "SANITIZE" for what we've been calling "filter" -- it's because they have both validation and filtering/sanitizing under the "filter" umbrella term.
