Alright, so here's the code I'm using (minus all the fluff): $.ajax({
type: 'POST', url: 'add-item.php', data: 'desc='+ $('#description').val() }); return false; With #description being the id of my input field on the form. Everything works properly except when I throw in a single quote it kills the js. I know why it does, but I haven't been able to find how to fix it. I've search for a few hours now with no luck... any ideas? Thanks in advance for any help.
