How can i send & or & to database?

[shortysbest]

When i $_POST[] the form it doesn't send anything to database after the & sign. How can i allow it to send without breaking the php code or whatever.

 

right now I have :

 

mysql_real_escape_string(ucwords($_POST['title']));

 

Thanks.

Have you verified that it's making it as far as the query string intact? Make sure it's in the $_POST array, and echo the query string to make sure it's there also.

echo '<pre>';
print_r($_POST);
echo '</pre>';

I'm using ajax to send the form, and when i alert it out in the javascript it has it there as &.

But it doesn't work once it's gone to the php script

Javascript encodeURI() or encodeURIComponent() depending on the data.
