Anyway, my problem is this. I'm using PHP to sculpt a page around the
results of a MySQL query (great so far) but I'm not sure how to handle
results from MySQL with quotes in them. For example, one field is
"dimension" which can have values like: 2" x 30" x 1'

When I toss that value into a line attempting to display a form field,
the resulting html thinks the first quote in the value is the end
quote for the form vield "value" attribute.
