Thanks for your reply. I tried that, but now it displays the raw html code instead of the output

Thanks for the reply but the horses are out the gate, meaning i have about 3,000 users who have enterered html code. some are funky others are not. i can do this for the new entries.. I am planning to remove allowing html entry.. what can i do to the already entered html code? is there a way to display the output of the html code in a text box when the user edit his post and then i can save the text version when they submit.

Hey Guys I have a website where people are allowed to enter html code. its works fine with regular html, but some people are copying stuff from MSword and pasting it into my program. When i echo the field from the database, it gets a parse error because there are codes in the html such as <?, ; and stuff like that, that relates to php. Is there a way i can parse these html code before i echo it from PHP? Thanks in advance

Hey Thanks alot I really appreciate it.

Hey guys I need a help with a query I have 2 tables [b]table 1[/b] code,description [b]table 2[/b] field,field2,code1,code2, field3, etc code1,code2 in table 2, their descriptions can be found in table 1. i want a query to show me all the records in table 2, but with the codes description instead of the code itself The result set must therefore have 2 fields for desription, because code1 will not equal code 2 I am stuck with mysql 3.23....
