Hello friends

I have a problem still facing and my proglem goes like this.

I have to insert some text like ";\ksk';| eGg'eof]– ;f/f dhb'/ " in the database and i did it by using mysql_escape_string() and i got the content in database like this "ljBfno ;d\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'bfodf hfg] qmd a9\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\bf]"but I want to remove all the backslashes(\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\) and want only one or two back slashes so that i can show the text properly in the page. Please send me any suggestions or solutions of this question.

Why not use the addslashes and stripslashes functions, instead?

Also, bear in mind that (to quote the manual):
The PHP directive magic_quotes_gpc is on by default, and it essentially runs addslashes() on all GET, POST, and COOKIE data. Do not use addslashes() on strings that have already been escaped with magic_quotes_gpc as you'll then do double escaping. The function get_magic_quotes_gpc() may come in handy for checking this.

Take it easy,
Dan
