Escaped

[madcat]

Hey-

The content written in the description area of a form I have is sent back in email to certain people. When apostrophes are written in the description element they are escaped in the output...how can I filter those out? I'm using PHP in the form script- (not sure if this is a php problem):0~

people's looks like people\'s...

Thanks

Itīs a php feature ;). This behaviour can be changed with the magic_quotes_gpc [php.net] configuration directive.

Thanks for your help. Wrapping the email $content variable in a stripslashes function did the trick.
