How to parse a search string..

I have a search box, and need to parse out some special characters (' and \). The search bar text is sbar.text.. How do I interrupt the string before it is sent and remove (or warn) of these characters... ? Many thanks..

I've tried this:

if ([sbar.text isEqualToString:(@"'")] || [sbar.text isEqualToString:(@"\\")]) {
			NSLog(@"Found You");
			sbar.text = nil;

(This works when the characters are first in the string..)

and this:

NSString *protectedString1 = sbar.text;
NSString *protectedString2 = [protectedString1 stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString:@"'" withString:@" "];
sbar.text = protectedString2;

But this loops :)
