hi Jens,

PHP automatically escape the dangerous characters from the user input on
form submissions.

there are several ways to escape that back :

stripslashes()
urlencode()
htmlentities()

read about these, they will soon become your solutions.

Subject: [PHP] Quotes in inputfields & Reload


Hy everybody,

Well here is the deal (Probably an easy one 8))
I have several inputfields and check if the are valid or have content.
If an error occurs and the page reloads i simply echo the content of the
fields back into the input fields, viola, wonderful.

BUT if there are " eg. Quotes in those fields they suddenly read \" instead
of " as they should 8(

I guess that the parser is doing something to it there since " is a
sensitive char in php. BUT how can i get the content to be reloaded
correctly into the fields again.

Here an example of how those fields look like

<input type=text name=v_email value="<?php echo($v_email); ?>" size=40>

tried it like this too, no difference:
<input type=text name=v_email value="<?php echo("$v_email"); ?>" size=40>


thx in advance, Jens Nedal
