[PHP] slashes added before '

[Khalid El-Kary]

this code snippet:

function save($file)
{
   $my_file=fopen($file,wb);
   $my_status=fwrite($my_file,$text);
   fclose($my_file);
}

is intended to overwrite a file or create a file and write to it from a 
string that's already containing text.

the problem is the after the script writes the file i find \ before all 
single and double qoutes in the whole file

this problem occured on red hat linux but in windows it didn't happen.

can any one help?

Use stripslashes() on the text before you write it to the file. Where is
this text coming from? The slashes are probably getting added by
magic_quotes.

You probably have magic_quotes_gpc in php.ini off on your Windows platform
and on on your Linux platform

Magic_quotes_gpc automatically applies addslashes to POST, GET and cookie
data if its on.

Use stripslashes to remove it or to write code thats portable - write a
function like:-

function stripData($data) {
  return ini_get('magic_quotes_gpc') ? stripslashes($data) : $data;
}
