Hello everybody
I need some help with CI Validation rules.... with simple and double quotes.
I want to convert " & ' in html entities when the values are submitted in database.
I tested differents way but when my data is converted and when I'm trying to submit the same string, the returned value is like #039; in my input tag.
Someone has a solution ?
Thanks
Note : I used set_value() on input type="text", I removed all htmlspecialchar in set_rules and data array input...

Hum str_replace in the form juste before set_value() ?
I used
Code:
$this->form_validation->set_rules('name', 'Nom', 'trim|htmlspecialchars|required|is_unique[cmd_editors.editors_name]|');But when name is already in database, the double quotes are displayed as " in the input name.
So I think it's maybe a CI configuration/used function use mistake ?
In documentation
Quote:Note: You will generally want to use the prepping functions after the validation rules so if there is an error, the original data will be shown in the form.
But if I use prepping function after validation, my result will be edited before insert in the database thus when I will resubmit the same value, the is_unique function will not run.
is_unique will compare
Code:
hello "you"Code:
hello " you "
