Addslashes

Guys, i think i hit a bug in the php-4b3 release. Ive got a script that saves a text field from a entry form (<textarea>) into a DB field (mysql mediumtext). On submission i do a $text = addslashes($text); to prevent SQL errors. When i save this 'string', and edit the content again it has still got \'s in the text. Eg begin text : i'm curious how this will work text after addslashes (so send to the DB) : i\\\'m curious text when querying/displaying string: i\'m curious So it seems the addslashes function is a little escape happy in php-4b3. Ps this behaviour isnt present in the php-3 series, and is new under php-4b's ... Hope this helps -- Chris Chabot
