Hi Eveyone

Someone's registered on my forum with the username Me"

The speech mark is causing havoc with the html and prevents the users post count increasing. Here's a link to the discussion http://www.mbuk.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=72075

I know that certain punctuation marks are not allowed in the username the speech mark isn't one of them. The code is

sInvalidChars = "!#$%^&*()=+{}[]|\;:/?>,<'"
(register.asp line 759 v 3.4.03)

How can I add a speech mark to that?

Obviously I'll get in touch with this guy and change his username for now but it would be good to prevent this happening in the future.

Many thanks
Clare
