Yeah that's making no sense to make o.0 I have even test it out on mine, with nothing but single quotes, no problem =/

I don't get a problem posting articles with just ''''''''''''''' in, they go in fine. It's when I use stuff like "I'm, I'll, Bloodrun's, Saphira's, BMR's" etc.

That doesnt make since though, because the stripsplash should take care of that =/

I've just done a completely fresh install of both the adoptables script, and of the news script. I'm getting the exact same error. The only thing I've changed in the whole thing is the detail section in the database from varchar to LONGTEXT.

Try just making it varchar, and make it a really number like, 10,000

[Saphira]

Exactly the same. If you want I can link you to the test site where I'm trying to fix this.

Bloodrun, are you running the secure function twice on the data? That could potentially add two sets of quotes.

Also, is PHP Magic Quotes enabled on the server having this error? That may also cause issues as that automatically tries to escape data in some situations, which secure() takes care of.

Twice for the same function?
It might be possible Ill check.

The second thing, I believe your talking to Saphira, so yeah.. lol

[Saphira]

I used

PHP Code:

<?
if(get_magic_quotes_gpc())
    echo "Magic quotes are on";
else
    echo "Magic quotes are off";
?>

To see if magic quotes were enabled or not on http://jonalicious.com/magic.php. Apparently they are off. Is this a problem?

[BMR777]

No, if magic quotes are off that's fine. If they were on, which they are on by default on some real old PHP installs, that could account for double slashes on ' marks and thus why the single quotes would not appear correctly.

Since they are off though the single quotes not appearing correctly is not caused by what I thought it might be.
