Hi - looking for guidance on how best to handle commas. I have a website where people can updload images with related description text which appears on the website as the image ALT deta in the HTML. One problem i have is often people have images with filenames like New 'Cool' Bathroom.jpeg they then add a description with the same name. To be honest i'm not really interested in doing anything too complicated. Happy to probably just remove the commas so it doesnt cause the php to fall over as the comma is treated as part of the php code. Any thoughts?

Many thanks in advance.

I'd just strip 'em off.

Thanks sketchMedia. Whats the best way to do this? preg_replace? Could you post me the code? Cheers.

Something like this would strip everything off that isn't a letter, number, -, _, or .

I didn't test it.

Any ideas why this might happen?

Try removing the +
