Betreff: Select Value with 's
This is a basic question but I am all messed up and need to be straightened
out..
Have a select field called customer that works great except when there is a
' in the customer name.
Have tried addslash and stripslashes but I think I might be using them
wrong.
If I addslash to the select value, the value received but the result page is
truncated up to the point of
the ' .....
Can someone refresh me on the correct use of add and strip slashes...
please??
Thanks
Aleks
