I did. It's not clear, at least to me, what you're trying to do. You say "print" at one point and "insert into database" at another point. I'm pretty sure I know the solution. What's not clear to me is the *problem*. Where are the data coming from? Are you generating it within the script? Are you receiving it as the contents of a web form? What are you doing with that data? Printing it? Storing it into the database? Storing it into the database so that you can print it as a Web page later? > >-----Original Message----- >From: Paul DuBois [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] >Sent: Friday, February 08, 2002 9:40 AM >To: Todd Williamsen; [EMAIL PROTECTED] >Subject: Re: [PHP-DB] addslashes() > > >At 9:14 -0600 2/8/02, Todd Williamsen wrote: >>So if I: >>Going in >>$Notes = addslashes($Notes); >> >>Going Out: >>$Notes = stripslashes($Notes); >> >>wouldn't that kill the html? or no? > >I have no idea.
