I may be able to now because I am using BreezingForms to create an admin page where I can manipulate the client's input before adding it to the database.

Currently the client is using Art Adminer to paste the code into the database and so making the correction is a hassle for the client.

In either case, I think you need to correct this in the plugin, but my immediate needs may be resolved by a workaround that does not involve special skills on my client's part.

Can you tell me where in the code it does this or why because $## (# being any digit) should not require substitution or encoding. Regardless of what the numbers are, it is being replaced with nothing (comes out blank), or so it seems.

Thanx for your attention to this.
