I don't understand this question, maybe you're looking for :
http://www.php.net/addslashes
http://www.php.net/stripslashes
http://www.php.net/manual/en/configuration.php#ini.magic-quotes-gpc
Looks like you have magic_quotes_gpc enabled. Adjust accordingly. Using
addslashes() on a string essentially does the same thing.
