another question is could this becoming from the table I am comparing it too?
SELECT * FROM store_address WHERE address = '".$address."'
where $address is fine but the other table is causing the error. how do I strip that result as well?
I have this code in to try and strip single quotes out. But it does it to one but not the rest.
$address = str_replace("\\\///", "", $store['address']); $address = str_replace("'", "", $address); $address = str_replace("'", "\'", $address); $address = addslashes($address); $sql2 = "SELECT * FROM store_name WHERE name = '".$store['name']."'"; //$build_sql .= $sql2."<br>"; $result2 = mysql_query($sql2) or die(mysql_error()); $store_name = mysql_fetch_array($result2); $sql3 = "SELECT * FROM store_address WHERE address = '".$address."'";
any thoughts

You need to use addslashes() on any string you insert into your query.
