Escape single quotes by replacing them with two single quotes prior to
submitting the search query. You would then be searching for "Lauren''s
Closet". You can do this programmatically, of course, on the search action
template. Escaping single quotes is also a good security precaution (along
with removing pipe characters), so malicious users don't create a little
subquery that drops a database or table from your search form.
