It looks as if you have magic_quotes_gpc enabled. Either disable it via php.ini or an .htaccess
directive. If you can't do that, make a quick google search for something along the lines of
stripslashes deep, and apply that to the $_GET and $_POST superglobals as early as possible.

I have a simple form and save some text to the database. I use code like the
following in my form:
$names = new Zend_Form_Element_Text('names');
$names->setLabel('Names:')
->setRequired(true)
->addFilter('StripTags')
->addFilter('StringTrim')
->add
