replace " with quot; before using it as an initial form value. works in IE I am not sure if netscape interprets these codes in form fields though morgan At 09:57 AM 4/20/2001, Joseph Koenig wrote: I have a client who insists on being able to put quotes into one of the fields of the database. That's fine with me, however, when editing records, anything in the quotes won't show up on the admin page.

Addslashes should be used before saving to database, though. regards Wagner -- "A conference is a gathering of important people who singly can do nothing, but together can decide that nothing can be done."

Right on. That did it. I probably should have been RTFM'ed for that one :) I knew there was a simple solution.
