Greetings all, I'm doing all my PHP development on my iBook running OS X. I'm currently working on a messaging tool for a website. When the messages are posted on my iBook the single quotes are escaped properly. When I upload the same *.php files to the server the single quotes are preceded by a backslash. i.e. Don't appears: Don\'t I presume this has something to do with the way PHP is configured. My goal is to never have to use the addslashes() function. Any suggestions?
See here: http://de.php.net/addslashes Pay attention to the notes on magic_quotes.
I would suggest turning off all magic_quotes settings and dealwith with it yourself (or letting a package do it for you). Using magic_quotes can lead to many nightmares....
Regards, Torsten Roehr
