Weird problem with slashes

[pckidcomplainer]

I have this simple problem and it's driving me insane...please help!

---

<?
if ($check == "1") {
echo stripslashes($testvar);
} else {
?>
<form action="<?php echo $PHP_SELF; ?>" method="post">
<input type="submit" name="submit1" value="ok">
<input type="hidden" name="testvar" value="\"Test\"">
<input type="hidden" name="check" value="1">
</form>
<?
}
?>

---

This will only return the backslash: \

The problem is that, that I want to submit a text field to the next side and when the user types in something
like: "blabla "bla" blabla" I will get into troubles!

Is there any way to get this variable correct through the form???

Argh...

The thing is, you implemented your test incorrectly.

I would suggest using this form:

<?php
if (!empty($_POST['check'])) {
	echo stripslashes($_POST['testvar']); 
} else {
?> 
<form action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?>" method="post">
<input type="text" name="testvar">
<input type="submit" name="submit1" value="ok">
<input type="hidden" name="check" value="1">
</form>
<?php
} 
?>

Then entering '"test"' into the textbox and submit the form
