[PHP] New Server, Bad Attitude

My friends' server is giving me a hard time. What happened is (long story short) he was forced to use a new server for the web sites on his old one. One of them was mine. I'm experiencing some weirdness now: 1. PHP automatically sticks in the backslash in front of apostrophes and quotation marks.

[PHP] Array function to delete

I've been checking the PHP documentation, but can't find a function that will delete a member of an array, like such: $a = array(1, 2, 3, 4, 5); Use the function, say array_delete($a, 3); and that will delete the third member in the array (which would be 4 above), so that the array would contain

Thanks for all your help, everyone, but both suggestions (unset and array_slice) pretty much didn't improve on my current way. I was jsut trying to find a faster way, but unset doesn't seem to be working properly (but I'll need to fiddle more) and the array_slice way is just too intensive. for($c

[PHP] Database Duplication

I'm not sure if this is possible in PHP (maybe it's even an SQL problem, I dunno), but is there a command that will duplicate a database? I need to make a 'mirror' of it that I can dispose of after my user logs out that won't change the source database at all.

[PHP] GD library problem

This is funny: I have getimagesize(), but not createimage() and things like that. Is this because getimagesize() is not part of the GD library...? Or is there a problem with my GD library? Also, is there any resolution to this GIF copyright thing going on with Unisys? I want to be able to resize
