fwrite() problem

[Anon]

ok, well im trying to create an OHE (online html editor) using php, mySQL and javascript and ive run into a problem!
see when i write into the main <textarea> and then try create the file using fwrite, php puts \ right before every " .. this is prolly cause of parsing issues etc but i want to make it so that it will not write \ before each " using fwrite..
is there anyway i could do this?????

Have you tried the <? stripslashes($textareavariable); ?> before using the fwrite. In case you have not done please do that. Hope that solves the problem....

nope no help! thanx anyway!
heres the cod if it helps:

<?
stripslashes($area);
if ($file=fopen($title.$dot.$type, "w")) {
fwrite ($file,$area);}

$full = $title.$dot.$type;?>

<?php

mysql_connect ("localhost");

mysql_select_db ("my_db");

mysql_query ("INSERT INTO htmlfile (filename, author, type)
VALUES ('$full', '$auth' , '$type')
");

print("<b>$full</b> has been created and information has been added to the DB , thankyou!");

$link = mysql_connect("localhost");
mysql_select_db("my_db", $link);

$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM htmlfile", $link);
$num_rows = mysql_num_rows($result);

echo "<br> $num_rows entries have been made in the DB!\n";
print " <br> <a href=\"manager.php\">File Manager</a> "
?>
