The original post about problem strings and TinyMCE reminds me of a problem I recently had. Search for "500.shtml error? What is this? Help!?" in this group.
But I had built a basic CMS that allowed an admin to change text in specific views. Whenever the text contained "from" or other specific words, submitting the form would redirect the browser to a page that did not exist. Removing TinyMCE allowed the text to submit without a problem. However, TinyMCE was a requirement. It turns out the server admin had set the mod_security settings to protect against sql injection. Once he removed the mod_security settings site-wide, the problem went away. I made sure I was using Cake's sanitize function as a sql injection protection. I hope this helps.
