    The script you use to process the form input must have a function to remove any commas.

    Post the script here if you need more help.

    <?php 
    $words = explode(",",$_POST['metakeywords'],7); 
    $uploadDir = '../videos/'; 
    $filename = $_FILES['image']['name']; 
    $filearray = explode(".",$filename); 
    $keys = array_keys($filearray); 
    $suffix = end($keys); 
    $uploadFile = $uploadDir . $filename; 
    $imagedir = getcwd(); 
    $filenamecheck = $uploadDir.$filename; 
    $newname = $_POST['description'].".".$filearray[$suffix]; 
                                               
    if (!file_exists($filenamecheck)) { 
        move_uploaded_file($_FILES['image']['tmp_name'], $uploadFile); 	
        chmod ($imagedir."/".$filename, 0755); 
        rename ($imagedir."/".$filename,$imagedir."/".$newname);
        $htmlfile = $_POST['nameofthehtml'] .".php";

    You see this?
    $string = "<html><head><META NAME='keywords' CONTENT='".$words[0]." ".$words[1]." ".$words[2]." ".$words[3]." ".$words[4]." ".$words[5]." ".$words[6]." ".$words[7]."'>

    Could I put commmas here?

    ".$words[0]." ,".$words[1]."

    You could do that yes.

    Not sure what your script is doing though - the first line
    $words = explode(",",$_POST['metakeywords'],7); is splitting apart the text string metakeywords at each comma do you need to do this for your script or could you just use the raw string?
