Maybe something like this:
var $swaps = array('\n','\r','\\');
function unSanitize($str)
{
foreach($swaps in $item)
{
/* search for the item as \n or \r then put it in quotes for php
to evaluate it and replace it back in */
$str = str_replace($item, "{$item}", $str);
}
}
Something like that might work. I haven't tested it, but it might get
you started.
