Slashes

Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

Have a small problem and I'm not able to understand why I'm getting the results I'm getting... and it's all down to darn slashes.

The brand in question is O'Brien

Code: [Select]<div><a href="javascript:void(0)"onclick="window.open('/admin/popup/shop.php?tbl=brands&brand=<? echo addslashes($row["brand"]); ?>&brandId=<? echo $row["brandId"]; ?>&action=edit&step=1', 'none', 'width=750,height=250,menubar=no,status=no,resizable=no,location=no,toolbar=no,scrollbars=yes,left=50,top=50,titlebar=no')">EDIT</a></div>

The addslashes is giving me the result O\'Brien - 3 slashes, not 2!

Therefore when we are preparing to use a form to input it back into the database:

Code: [Select]<input name="brand" type="text" value="<? echo mysql_real_escape_string(urldecode(stripslashes($_GET["brand"]))); ?>" />

It's being entered as O'Brien - still with a slash, instead of O'Brien...

Any ideas?
