Psycho Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 figured it out I changed the < to < in my db Why would you do that? I suggest always keeping your data in it's "raw" state. If you ever need to use that data as HTML code you will have a harder time converting that code back. A better solution, IMHO, would be to simply use htmlspecialchars() or htmlentities() to convert the text on-the-fly to replace the necessary characters.
