Hi, I'm having trouble getting special characters out of MySQL using php
4.06.
I add a field like "McDonald's" from PHP and in mysql client I can see the
entry (McDonald's) is put into the database correctly. However the problem
arises when I query it and it prints out (McDonald\'s). Is there any way for
php to pull out the string as it is in the database without putting in the
escape character ( \ ) ????
thx
