Hello,

 

htmlspecialchars function require only string parameter. The syntax is: htmlspecialchars(string,flags,character-set,double_encode)

 

For example:

 

$string = 'My name is John';

echo htmlspecialchars($string);

 

If your $string variable is an array, you get the error like in your post.

@ovy79ro indeed.

I study code from a commercial module to make something new and at some point, via tpl, it uses the product name.
This is a table (due to multi-lingual setup). You made my day

Back to back:

I made an admin controller and the respective class and db table.

The field was NOT an array or object BUT:
In the constructor I took the same field (let's name it "field") and started an object without noticing that they do share the same name.

My bad
