Escaping characters

[mmarkin]

Hi.

I have a script that reads a text file, puts it into a form, and if the form is submitted, re-writes the file with the submitted data. The problem is this: if I use characters such as " in the form and submit it, the string will be written to the file with \". Is there a way to go around this?

Thanks....

Mikhail

This is because magic_quotes_gpc is enabled on your server. Before writing to the file consider using stripslashes() first.
