Rik,
Thank you for such an informative and complete response. You actually led me to the real problem and, yes, it is PHP related. When I capture the actual response from my PHP script, I see all my quote marks are escaped with \., which I am doing when I build the response string.

Ah, so the problem with the form was an HTML problem. The cause of the HTML problem is actually faulty PHP-script.

I didn't think they would still be there when it reached my browser. Is there something I can do in my PHP script prior to returning the HTML string that will strip those slashes?

Don't have those slashes in there at all I'd say.

I also tried changing my code to single quotes around the entire string, and double quotes only - no slashes - around the element values, but it still comes to my browser with the slashes at the double-quotes. ???

That shouldn't happen, unless you run some code over the response string by accident. Might wee see an extract of your code?

I verified that magic_quotes_sybase is off, and magic_quotes_gpc is on. According to the php manual, I should be able to use stripslashes() to resolve this, but it isn't doing anything. So, I am gladly posting my code for you to critique. I only included the txtCompany text box for brevity. Even though I took out all the slashes, they are all there when it reached my browser.

if($row){
$output = '<table class="clientdata"><tr><td>' . $row['name'] . '<br />&nbsp;</td></tr>';
$output = $output . '<tr><td><form name="clientform" id="clientform"><table>';
$output = $output . '<tr><td>Name:</td><td><input id="txtCompany" name="txtCompany" type="text" size="65" value="' . $row['name'] . '" /></td></tr>';
$output = $output . '<tr><td colspan="2">';
$output = $output . '<input id="add" name="add" type="button" value="Add" onClick="addThisClient(' .$row['tid'] . ',' . $row['id'] . ');" />';
$output = $output . '<input id="update" name="update" type="button" value="Update" onClick="updateThisClient(' .$row['tid'] . ',' . $row['id'] . ');" />';
$output = $output . '<input id="delete" name="delete" type="button" value="Delete" onClick="deleteThisClient(' .$row['tid'] . ',' . $row['id'] . ');" />';
$output = $output . '<input type="reset" value="Clear" /></td></tr>';
$output = $output . '</table></form></td></tr></table>';
echo $output;
}

Makes no sense to me, I hope it does to you. Thanks so much for taking your time on this.
