thanks for comment,
Is it needed to apply htmlentities($mytext) before storing data ?

Where does addslashes/stripslashes come in to all this?
must i addslashes($mytext) to all form fields before storing in mysql table, and stripslashes() when get it out, and before displaying?

What is best sequence when taking user data from a form, store it in table field, then get it back out and fill is a browser form feed with echo $mytext;?
thanks
Chris
