ID: 46794 Updated by: derick@php.net Reported By: sohel62 at yahoo dot com -Status: Open +Status: Bogus Bug Type: Output Control Operating System: Win 2000 PHP Version: 5.2.7 New Comment: Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php addslashes only deals with bytes, and has no notion about character sets. Therefore it doesn't know it deals with Shift_JIS and can not escape those with addslashes properly. This is something that will be addressed in PHP 6.
