I noticed that when submitting a form, PHP will add the slashes to the text fields. Also, if you have a text field with a value such as: 'this will remain "this will disapear"', the entire text in double quotes (") will be replaced with a \. So using stripslashes() on this will remove the entire double-quoted text. So: echo stripslashes("this will remain \"this will disapear\""); // prints: this will remain (remove underscore in email address to email me) http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.stripslashes.php
