Ok so I installed a script on my server right..and it requires php 5...I used cpanel to build that with apache update. so I have php 5.2.4 running..with mysql 5.
Now here comes the problem (wich I personally thought was only supposed to occur in php4). I actually had been running the script on a different server which also had php5, without a problem. But now once I installed it in my new dedicated server...i have this issue with data intered in textarea are injected into the database with slashes on them wherever there is a single quote or double quote (ie..'=> \') ....I thought this was only a problem with php4 that required a "stripslahses()" function to fix...
I am convinced the problem is with the php5 engine...which I presume can be fixed in the settings.....But I have no idea how to go about doing that...so can anyone here help? Any ideas?
