hmm common problem with most sites !<br />
<br />
see if cfqueryparam can help u out in this - as it solves most of the &quot;&nbsp;quotes &quot;&nbsp;related problems.<br />
<br />

<br />
with word it may be unavoidable in some cases ... <br />

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
i have an ACTIVEDIT WYSIYIG editor for people to use to put large amounts of HTMLtext and i write this information into a database. &nbsp;on the website, i pull the information out from the database and the apostrophoes (single quotes) and quotations (double quotes) have become squares like this  after i finish writing to the database. &nbsp;the information is stored as squares in the database itself. &nbsp;does anyone know why and how to fix it?<br />
<br />
in addition, most people copy the text from a word document or something to that effect and sometimes the quotes get converted to HTML code and sometimes it just stays as the squares. &nbsp;are these a special code or character?

A web server refers to the software that helps to deliver web content that can be accessed either through the Internet or through an intranet. The primary function of a web server is to store, process and deliver web pages to clients. The communication between client and server takes place using the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP). The most common use of web servers is to host websites, but there are other uses such as gaming, data storage, running enterprise applications, handling email, FTP, etc.
