[s-cars] Can't get Audifans Marketplace to work, so....

[Cody Forbes]

Since its written in PHP I can say that if the problem is with apostrophes than using a forward slash before the apostrophe will likely cure that problem. It's would become "it/'s". 

If that fixes it than the developer forgot to include a step between taking the input from the text area and writing it to the database with a routine called addslashes(). Easy fix.
