this'll probably sound obvious...

ok, i'm trying to set up a php mail utility.

i'm entering the mail content into a textarea and submitting to a php script that mails the content to a fixed address.

i'm calling mail() like this:

mail ('[e-mail]', $mailSubject, $mailComments, $additionalOptions)

where $mailComments is "Here's an example"

when the message gets delievered, the content displays as:

Here\'s an example.

i know the solution to this has to be pretty simple, but right now i'm stuck. any suggestions?

Try Stripslashes. =)

If this is a variable you pass from a form, slashes will be added for single quotes.

$variable = stripslashes($variable);
