Mail mesage problems

Can anyone tell me how to ignore the speech marks, apostrophes etc in a mail message as whenever a message is sent through PHP where someone has used any " or ' then it is not processing the end of the message.....

Maybe i describe well what I meanr. What i mean is that I am trying to send an email via an html form but whenever someon uses quotes in the message area, the email fails to process completely as it processes the quotes as code, i need to know how to get my mail to ignore the quotes within the text.

Just use the addslashes function it will escape any characters that need them.

$message=addslashes($message);

if someone sends the message

"some message" is here... ' here is another'

then after going though addslashes the message will be.

\"some message\" is here... \' here is another\'

when you send this using your email routine it will drop the slashes and send the message in its original form.

Mark.

I knew it was and addslashe/strip slash thing but couldn't get it right as I was trying to carry the variables across a number of pages, but I've condensed it now it got it working, cheers.
