Rithotyn Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 I'm wanting a way to provide users the ability to perform a small amount of text formatting on form entered text. I've found a simple(ish) rich text formatting javascript tool (http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex16/richtexteditor/index.htm) that allows this and as far as I can see will allow me to pass the text plus the added HTML formatting via POST into a variable in the next page. My question is what functions would I need to apply to this content to ensure it maintains all the relevant 's and "s before I pass it into the database? Assuming thats succesfull, would I need to process it in anyway upon retrieval? Any help is appreciated.

premiso Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 You should only have to use mysql_real_escape_string to keep the quotes in the database. But make sure that magic_quotes are not turned on or else you will double escape them. If it is on use strip_slashes before you escape the string or turn it off in the php.ini file as suggest in the magic quotes link above.
