REVERT ANY FILES TO THE DEFAULT CODE. Only make the change in post 18 and let me know. You can not put convert_returns and un_htmlspecialchars on the same line which I beleive causes this issue and would explain why I can not replicate it
That is the problem chuck.... what you told me in post 18 of this thread conflicted with a fix you had given me earlier in another thread. So what you were telling me to change was not there - exactly.

Now you tell me to revert all code? ALL CODE? Back to the distribution? or just the code in the spots that we are working with? I don't even know what all code was changed off hand since you have sent me some fixed files in email.

That is the problem with these fixes-per-user , the forums "no-file-attachment" policy & the way you guys handle your distribution updates, Chuck.

The way I see it is if a bug fix is needed, then it should be coded in a way to be able to applied for all installations and made available for all users.

It should then immediately added to a daily snapshot release of the corresponding software distributions so that new customers do not wind up coming to the forums and posting the exact same bug reports.

Instead you could just say "there were some bug fixes that will take care of that problem, you should update to the daily snapshot"

It's not my company, but I'm sure the community would greatly appreciate a better bug tracking and distrubtion system. I know I would.
