Heloorghhh !!!
Well, try to make a script with :
<?php
echo "bob says : \"hello, brother !!! \" ";
echo " bob says : "hello, brother !!! " ";
?>
then, look at the output to see where the error is !!!!
well, php's got to know which of the quotes means "end of string" an which
is a part of the string...
so, parts of the string must be backslashed in every function using it ....
when submitting a form php assumes that the string will be processed in a
function and protects it.
sorry for my medium english.
