Thanks,

Is it possible that it may be code further on in the script that is causing the problem due to the value of $in{username} after it is escaped?

By commenting out the line it may appear like that is causing the problem when it's not.

Can you show some more code?

Thanks for your reply.

Actually, the passing value is just normal text, not special code in it. When I test with the simple script, it's working properly. May be it is caused by the complexity of my application?

Thanks,
