Most likely the cause of this is the magic_quotes_gpc setting in your
(either maintained by you, or your hosts) php configurations, which are
contained within php.ini  Information on this setting can be read about
here :

  http://php.net/manual/configuration.php#ini.magic-quotes-gpc

In short, you can use the stripslashes() function to strip them :

  http://www.php.net/manual/function.stripslashes.php

Essentially you'd do one of the following :


  $data = stripslashes($data);

or

  print stripslashes($data);
