slashes in mail()

[willh]

Hi

Please help - I have a small mailing list script where the body of the email comes from a textarea. I have been getting \' and \" in the email where it is ' and " in the testarea. I have tried stripslashes() but it doesn't seem to make any difference. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks in advance

Well i tried this code and it stripped the '\' from the matter in the Textarea all right:

if(mail("[e-mail]","Last mail", stripslashes($matter)))
{

echo(stripslashes($matter)." send");

}
else
{
echo ("mail cannot be send");
}
?>

Sorry - I was mistaken, you are right.

Thanks for the help.
