Actually, you'd probably want to do that in the SQL for whatever database
you're using.
i.e.
ORDER BY story_date
LIMIT 4

In your select statment you have labeled the returned column as date yet
your mysql_fetch_array uses the label 'tutdate' - the labels don't match...
To fix it, either do this...
$query = "SELECT DATE_FORMAT(tutdate, '%b-%e %l%p') as tutdate FROM
tutorial_table";
or do this ...
$vardate =
Tim,
This simple script works
$row = "abcd\efg";
$r1 = stripslashes($row);
print "NO STRIP >$row< ";
print "STRIP >$r1< ";
And gives the output
NO STRIP >abcd\efg<
STRIP >abcdefg<
What do you mean by "doesn't work"?
Have you checked if you are stripping an empty string, for instance ?
