Hi, I have just noticed a problem reading MySql data with PHP running as an apache module.
Basically, any data retrieved from MySql that contains a single quote (and no doubt other characters too) is displayed with a slash in it when printed by PHP. For example: $surname = "O'Brien"; print "$surname"; displays - O'Brien - while $surname=mysql_result($result,0,"surname"); print "$surname"; displays - O\'Brien - even thought doing a select from the shell shows that is stored in mysql without the slash My ISP reciently upgraded from 4.12 to 4.2.2 and i wonder if this has anything to do with this, as these scripts did not ass slashes in print outputs before and have not been changed. I'm sure this is some PHP configuration thing, but magic quotes are off, and in any case I assumed this applied to incoming data only? What do I need to change and can I do this within a .htaccess file so it can easily be applied to all my scripts without changing them?
