Turn off magic_quotes_gpc in php.ini or .htaccess or use stripslashes() on
the fields.  The quotes are there for easy database updates/inserts but
cause trouble if you have to re-echo the data out.   If you insert these
fields into a db, and have turned of magic_quotes_gpc, you'll need to use
addslashes on each field. Otherwise you get new problems.
