Hi!

I'm having problems with double quotes. In the first database when I insert data from a textarea box which contains double quotes i.e Competition of "Classical" state, when viewing the saved data in the page it causes the rest of the page after the quotes to break (I get a load of html tags in that box and the rest of the page does not show as if it's treating the quotes as part of the code).
In the second database when i've inserted the above data into the database when i retrieve the page to view it the text is cut off before the first double quotes i.e Competition of. But the full sentence is in the database.

Is this something to do with configuration settings on the database. Can anyone help?

Thanks
Julie
