Try this:

<q>
test
</q> 

Okay, more like this:

LESSTHANqGREATERTHAN
test
LESSTHAN/qGREATERTHAN

I think you know what to do with the "LESSTHAN" and "GREATERTHAN" parts. 

YAY! ;) 

hmmmmmm 

Thnx

lt/gt had ocured to me, but I really got tired of trial and error. In future, I may just write up my comments as html and post links to the pages instead :P 

Interesting concept, if a little convoluted. 

test

Seneca? 

...DNS error when posting more than one line. 

Now I can only post one line too! 

test with no apostrophe: ` 

...apostrophes don`t work?! 

when my webhost upgraded their servers they must have changed certain PHP settings which affect how apostrophes are handled when inserting strings into a database. I will try to get the issue resolved, but in the meantime, everybody just leave apostrophes out of their posts -- Strunk and White would approve. 

' 

Use backslash apostrophe: \' 

wouldn't 

Could've guessed that by myself... So it's just a matter of addslashes() and stripslashes(). Go metlslime, go! 

my code worked THIS way until they changed the PHP handling of single quotes on me. 

. 

People seem to be saying that Func_Msgboard is "eating" posts. I haven't experienced any eating, but it does give a DNS error when you use an apostrophe. If that happens, just use the "back" button on your browser and then remove the apostrophes! 

the "eating posts" problem seems to be getting quite common, any ideas metlslime?

it allways works fine for me, BTW.

actually, looking above seems like RPG [maybe?] already has the answer?? 

i wonder if its something to do with the length of the post, seems to only happen to people on long posts?? 

Longer posts mean that it's more likely that you're going to use apostrophes.
