Hi louie,


 ?php htmlspecialchars($info); ?

htmlspecialchars() do not change the passed variable.
it will _return_ the result.
so you have to do like this:
$info = htmlspecialchars($info);

please read the manual before asking to the list.
it's clearly stated there, and there's even an example
on how to use this function.
