Strange. That code should not compile, as \' is not a valid escape sequence. You have to use "\\'" to get a string containing a backslash followed by an apostrophe.

--- b { font-weight: normal; }

I'm sure that's the answer. \' is not a valid escape sequence. Totally agree with Guffa. \\' is the way of escaping the slash.

ASP - AJAX is SEXY. PERIOD.

do you use it this way? strAns = strAns.Replace("'","\'"); Pilo
