and it seams soo simple to do...

First thanks for the outsanding help I have received here!

My issue/question is this...

If I am using something like..

PHP Code:


			
function StripSpecChar($val) {

    return (preg_replace('/[^a-zA-Z0-9" "-.@]/','', $val));

    }



    foreach ($_POST as $key => $val) { 

     $_SESSION[$key] = StripSpecChar($val);  

     }

to handle my session information. Why can I not do something similar to it to pull values from a MySql db and convert them in to the same thing where I end up with something like this...

PHP Code:


			
$_SESSION[$coloum_name] = $val_of_cell;

to put it back into a session array...

or am I just wishing that it could be that simple

Thanks
