Checking form for errors before processing
I am wanting to check an entry to see if it contains a " and if it does I will return an error message and I can't seem to get it right. What do I put where I have the ??? below?

Code:
if ($form{'title'} = ???) {
&error;
print "You may not use a \" in your title.\n";
&error2;
exit;
}
Thank You
