Hi everybody,

I have a php script that gets the text from a form field:

<?php

include("global.inc.php");

pt_register( 'POST', 'test1');
echo $test1;

?>

The text comes back fine, just some characters (', " and \) are now escaped
(\', \" and \\). The problem is that I need the he text to be exactly as it
was entered by the user. I could process the text myself, and replace the
escaped characters, but I'd like first to understand why this is happening
and if there is a way to disable this behavior and get the unmodified text
directly.

Thanks,

A
