You're doing everything right. If you have a look at the datfile you'll notice there are NO backslashes. Right? Ok, so the culprit must be fgets() - and indeed this can be found in the online manual (http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.fgets.php), in the user comments: php at silisoftware dot com 13-Jun-2002 06:44 Beware of magic_quotes_runtime ! php.ini-recommended for PHP v4.2.1 (Windows) had magic_quotes_runtime set ON, and that addslash'd all input read via fgets() So the solution here is to either add stripslashes() after your datfile read, or to use set_magic_quotes_runtime(0) (see http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.set-magic-quotes-runtime.php). -- >O Ernest E.
