Does anyone know of a way to escape the "+" sign. If it gets used in a field, it ends up disappearing and I can't think of a way to escape it or anything so that it shows up.
thanks!
thanks!

Try the following in the sub html_record routine:
$rec{'FieldName'} =~ s/+/\+/g;
Change FieldName to the field name where the plus sign is causing problems.

I guess I may have not stated myself clearly, SORRY! What i want to do is print a + sign. every time an entry is entered, say "1+4+3=8"
then the entry is displayed as "1 4 3=8" all i want is a plus sign =)

Unfortunately, no...
Out of curiosity, I just tried adding/modifying records with the string 1+2+3=6 on 3 separate DBMan databases... not one seemed to have a problem.
Is the "+" showing up in default.db?
