Hello,

I want to know how to echo a string that have a $ sign from a database. At this time, the value on database 'Buy one for $5.00' converts to 'Buy one for .00'.

Ex:- Field: title | Value: Buy one for $5.00

<?php
$row = mysql_fetch_array.....
$title = $row['title'];
echo $title;
?>

Thank you, pnm123
