This can't work since there are no slashes to strip...
stripslashes() strips certain slashes from a string. Assume you have a
textarea where the user enters "Thank's", so PHP converts this to
"Thank\'s" (assuming magic_quotes is set to on). Using stripslashes() here
will get rid of these slashes.
BTW - the sample you've sent will output "Thank's" - what are you doing
what you didn't show?
