PHP is probably escaping the single quotes for you:
it's -> it\'s
When addslashes() is applied to this, both the backslash character and the single quote are escaped:
\ -> \\
' -> \'
The result is what you see:
it\'s -> it\\\'s
If you strip slashes twice, you'll be back to normal.

When I use addslashes to add a back slash to a single quote, it returns 3 back slashes (example: 'it\\\'s'. Is that correct? Am I doing something wrong?
