Actually,
After coding with PHP since the days me and bourbon shared a cube at
Netvision while he developed php3 I think that's something I would know
:)
The funny issue is that only if I use double stripslashes does it work.
e.g.
$str = stripslashes($str); // This will NOT do the job.
$str = stripslashes(stripslashes($str)); // This will do the job.
This is the 1st time ever that I bumped into such a thing... any idea
why?
Any chance it has to do with the fact that I'm using HTML DIR=RTL ?

Subject: Re: [PHP] stripslashes() not striping slashes
Anyone has an idea why stripslashes(); doesn't strip slashes?
I have a form that when it's submitted with a ' sign ads slashes to
the
submit results.
I'm taking the variable and sending it through stripslashes(); and yet
the slashes remain.
You are perhaps thinking it does in-place modification of the argument?
ie.
stripslashes($a);
echo $a;
That's not how it works. It returns the stripped string. ie.
$a = stripslashes($a);
echo $a;
