Re: PHP HTML text editor issues...

Darnit if the php.ini file that I was looking at was the wrong one... looks like turning the magic quotes off in the correct php.ini file worked... thanks, Tim. At 10:17 AM 8/18/2004, Curt Zirzow wrote:

I've tried to use addslashes and stripslashes to prevent some of the clobbering of the text, but it doesn't seem to be working. If I don't do anything, it looks like PHP (or HTML) backslashes all quotes... I just want to get the EXACT text that is in the textarea to be saved to disk... Here is an example of a line that gets clobbered : $value =~ tr/\0//d; I read the file in from disk using file_get_contents. Does that do any translation ??? file_get_contents doesn't do any filtering. The issue your you're probably running into is that magic_quotes_gpc is set to On. This will addslashes to all your data by default. Two options: 1. Turn it off. 2. apply strip_slashes() to the string before writing to disk Curt -- First, let me assure you that this is not one of those shady pyramid schemes you've been hearing about. No, sir.
