I have a var:
$test = 'echo \'test\';';
If I display this in a textearea like so:
echo "<textarea wrap=\"virtual\" rows=\"20\" style=\"width:
100%\"
name=\"action\">\n"
.$test
."</textarea>\n";
In the browser and in the HTML source I see (no slashes):
echo 'test';
Even if I do an htmlentities($test); I see no slashes and the single-quotes
are not shown in the HTML source as "
Is this just a behavior of the textarea???
Thanks!
