PHP addslashes help

Hi

I have a textarea that writes to a .txt file, but it adds / next to " or '

I have been reading up on addslashes, but I can't implement it right

<?php

if (isset( $_POST ))
   $postArray = &$_POST ;			// 4.1.0 or later
else
   $postArray = &$HTTP_POST_VARS ;	// prior to 4.1.0


$fname="post.txt";


$nfile = fopen($fname, "w");


if($nfile != false)
{
	foreach ($postArray as $sForm => $value )
	{
		fwrite($nfile, $value);
	}


	fclose($nfile);
}	

?>

PHP:

Thats my php code in the post.php and here is my form:

   
<form action="post.php" method="post">

<textarea name="post" id="post"><? include ('post.txt') ?></textarea>
 <script language="JavaScript">
  generate_wysiwyg('post');
</script> 
<br />
<br />

<input type="submit" value="Confirm Changes">
</form>

PHP:

If anyone could help I would really appreciate it

 

Probably your Webserver is escaping the quote characters automatically. You don't need to use addslashes in your case, you need stripslashes
Try this:

if (get_magic_quotes_gpc())
{
	fwrite ($nfile, stripslashes($value));
}
else fwrite ($nfile, $value);

Code (markup):

Depending on who is submitting the form, if it isn't you, i would recommend checking the user input anyways...

 

hey thanks

it is for a user input, where about would I place that code in my script?

Cheers!

 

you put that inside your foreach statement

if($nfile != false)
{
foreach ($postArray as $sForm => $value )
{
if (get_magic_quotes_gpc())
{
fwrite ($nfile, stripslashes($value));
}
else
{
fwrite ($nfile, $value);
}

fclose($nfile);
}

 

that got it! thanks!!!
