mysql - Data sent from TinyMCE not saving in proper format -

i using tinymce saving data. when change color of selected text green , show as html output is:

text bla bla bla <span style="color: #99cc00;">selected word</span> lorem ipsum sads 

and after saving in mysql database stored like:

<span  #99cc00;">selected word</span> 

so, can see : span #99cc00;" should be:

span=" #99cc00;" 

but isn't.

any idea why first double quotes escaped , equal sign too? how save them database too?

use htmlspecialchars function before storing data in database.

you can see tutorial here.

and after fetching data, when echoing use html_entity_decode function. convert in html comes database.
