Thank you <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Well please send Me the whole page. Basically there is an html function that is used when you want to send HTML file code without the browser executing it. If that function is called then all the html tags are converted and all this happens. Please check did you call that function. Hope this solves your problem else you can drop me a line.

user99999999 Posted August 26, 2005 Share Posted August 26, 2005 You must have modified somthing to use this functiuon tep_sanitize_string() Maybe you uploaded database.php from the store into admin as the function is different. The store does not allow html but the admin does. catalog/admin/includes/functions/database.php function tep_db_prepare_input($string) { if (is_string($string)) { return trim(stripslashes($string)); } elseif (is_array($string)) { reset($string); while (list($key, $value) = each($string)) { $string[$key] = tep_db_prepare_input($value); } return $string; } else { return $string; } } catalog/includes/functions/database.php function tep_db_prepare_input($string) { if (is_string($string)) { return trim(tep_sanitize_string(stripslashes($string))); } elseif (is_array($string)) { reset($string); while (list($key, $value) = each($string)) { $string[$key] = tep_db_prepare_input($value); } return $string; } else { return $string; } } Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M-Pro Posted August 26, 2005 Share Posted August 26, 2005 Does your store have the HTMLArea (or other WYSIWYG editor) enhancement installed in admin (i.e. if you edit a product in admin, does it display a grey control bar with loads of Microsoft Word type formating buttons. If so, you can still enter HTML directly, by switching it off via the button with the <> symbol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
