No. This setting cannot be set within the script but can be with .htaccess
with the following :
php_flag magic_quotes_gpc off
And be sure to have a look here (see user comments too) :
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.get-magic-quotes-gpc.php
http://www.php.net/manual/en/configuration.php#ini.magic-quotes-gpc
But, if you just want to strip the slashes before display it's common
to use the stripslashes function :
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.stripslashes.php
Which means in your case you can do :
<?php echo stripslashes($text) ?>
It'll print $text as desired. magic_quotes are on by default and are
pretty common and useful, like for putting the data into the database (as
it escapes \"stuff\" automagically!)
