Need help with PHP text box...

Hello Friends,

I m getting a problem with my php program...

<?php

if(isset($_POST['submit']))
{
$text = htmlspecialchars($_POST['text']);
print $text;
}

print "
<form method=post name=myform action=temp.php>
<input type=text name=text>
<input type=submit name=submit value=submit>
</form>
";
?>

this is very simple program... when i put ' or " to text box it returns \' and \"...

although same program is working well with my local configuration. I m checking the things on PHP 2.5.8...

Please i need a urgent solution for that...when i put ' and " to text box, it should return same thing to me ... not escape string..

Thanks

 

<?php

if(isset($_POST['submit']))
{
$text = strip_slashes( htmlspecialchars($_POST['text']) );
print $text;
}

print "
<form method=post name=myform action=temp.php>
<input type=text name=text>
<input type=submit name=submit value=submit>
</form>
";
?>

PHP:

That should work fine for you.

 

Its stripslashes(), no underscore!

 

I have my own function with the underscore that basically escapes all content. The above was a typo

 

Thanks friends this is working really fine for website...

 

The other soultion is you can turn OFF php magic quotes using .htaccess file

php_value magic_quotes_gpc off
