I honestly don't know... all I know is that I'm adding slashes on the
way into the database, and stripping them on the way out, because
without them, I was getting errors / slashes everywhere.
It's a shared server at an ISP, so I don't have any real control. i
seem to be having the same "problem" on my office test server too (where
I DO have control, but I'm keen to keep both environments as close to
the same as possible.
