Punctuation replaced by slashes

[Anon]

Hi there

I have written a script which captures input from a HTML form and dumps them into a ascii file. However the script has a problem with punctuations such as the "apostrophe" - ' . Eg: "I'm at home." will be replaced with a slash like this: "I\'m at home."

The script and sourcecode are located at http://tune.yi.org/motd/

Gerald,

Call stripslashes() on the variable containing the form info you're going to write to ascii file.

Thanks geoff

I've overlooked that portion, got it to stripslashes now with this:

$strip_input = stripslashes($input);
