' character inside input

[eluser]Juzt1s[/eluser]
Hello,

every time I put ' inside input box and pass it, I get HTTP 500 error (blank page). How Do I avoid this?

I've tried checking if ' in input and then replace it with something else, but I get the problem where ' character is inside string. ex: Stacy's project.

I have a column which contains 1000 characters, but I get only 255 of them. Why is that?[/quote]
Change your column type to TEXT.
