The output from FCKeditor looks really messed up. For some reason what is displayed is the following:
<p>This is a test test</p> <br />
Does that mean there's some hidden formatting text in there?
Here's some more specifics on what I'm doing:
1. regular text stored in a MySQL field is pulled onto a web page using php
2. visitor clicks an 'edit' button and is able to edit the contents on that page.
3. page contents are now shown in a text editor box for editing (using FCKeditor)
4. pressing the 'submit' button sends the text (with changes) back to the database for future display on the web page.
I think the FCKeditor is altering all the text so that it shows up with all the special characters. I start with normal text, but each time FCKeditor picks up the text from the MySQL database and puts it back it ads serveral special characters on the front and end of the text. How do I stop this?

Re: fckeditor adding html escape characters?
I won't bet dollars to doughnuts on it, but I'm fairly certain it isn't FCKeditor.
I'm guessing (just guessing) it's probably MySQL that's causing this to happen. Have you investigated all possible areas where this might occur?

FCKConfig.ProcessHTMLEntities = true ;
or
FCKConfig.ProcessHTMLEntities = false ;
