You are right, something was adding the additional slash. I removed the addslashes() and it fixed the problem. Something I am doing must already be handling that... will step through the code AGAIN and see if I can find it.

The weird thing is that the data gets written into the table like: what\'s your problem?
WITH the slash. I am not sure what to modify to fix this so theslash is not written.
You're running addslashes() twice, somehow. Magic_quotes_gpc is probably
on and you're escaping the data again. I would think PEAR would account
for that, but I guess not.
