I've started a caption contest on my website (http://www.vandango.co.nr). It is judged every Sunday night or so (the winner isn't chosen by me) and a new contest started as soon as the judging is over.

To enter please visit http://www.vandango.co.nr/captions, remember to include your name and check back on Sunday night to see if you're the winner.

Well, I entered...

Grr... it added a \ before the apostrophe...

Yeah it does that so that the script doesn't break. It's my first ever PHP script. I've edited the Captions file so that there's no \ in your entry.

Ok, thanks.

Hmm, I notice it didn't do that to a guy before me though. I understand PHP has to escape the apostrophes but it's annoying. It did this to my script too once - if you find out how to stop it, let me know, please.

hey when i made a thread like this no1 went on it

Could you change my entry too? Just looks nicer without the \ in it

That's because I'm special

PS What did you think of my site / design etc??

This weeks contest now closed. "Bare Naked Ladies" was the winner.

New one opened - picture is REALLY random.

Does anyone know how to get rid of PHP escaping the ' and " by slashes?

the function you need may be this one : stripslashes

hope that will help you
