Re: [PHP] Add Slashes - Server Adds Them Automatically - Advice Requested!
Hmm.. Forms always produced slashed data than I wouldn't have gotten a MySQL error on the ' in O'Neil.. But perhaps it is something on my server..

Hello, I've created a little opensource script: http://openconcept.ca/guide-petition.phtml Which uses addslashes() to help clean up data inserted from a web form. This is fine, except that it appears that you can set up php, so that addslashes are automatically added: one small thing i noticed was the addSlashes issue. it seems like php is sometimes installed (such as on my machine) in such a way that addSlashes AUTOMATICALLY happens and therefore MANUAL addSlashes adds a SECOND, superfluous forward slash. eg Patrick the skier kuharic comes out in invitea friend emails by your system as Patrick \the skier\ kuharic Has anyone else experienced this?

See the magic_quotes_gpc setting in the php.ini file. This can be set to on or off, and is responsible for escaping GET/POST/COOKIE data automatically.
