Hello Wade,
What's so bad about apostrophes and what are the other "bad characters"
you're referring to? Have you seen addslashes(), stripslashes()
and magic_quotes_gpc? As well as strip_tags() and htmlentities().
Regarding replacing characters, have a look at str_replace() as well as
regex functions ereg_replace() and preg_replace().
Regards,
Philip
