[quote author="NikosV" date="1268375182"][quote author="Kenji @ CodeIgniter Users Group in Japan" date="1268373595"]You stored "& #40;" in database? It's a bad practice.
It's better to store "(" in database.[/quote]

but that's exactly my problem, when i store "(" my function doesn't get any results because the query is searching for "& #40;". How can i solve that?[/quote]

How about chaning the query from searching "& #40;" to searching "(" ?
