Strip Slashes Help

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

I've got a script that i've downloaded of the net to edit multiple fields from my sql database, and works fine EXCEPT I want to add the strip slashes bit to it so it will save what I type in. However, I tried, and totally cleared 2 fields for all records on my db, so not happy. So here is the script, can anyone help me put the stripslashes bit where it should be please...

The stripslashes are important for 'item' and 'description' fields.

Code: <?php
"db connection area"
$sql="SELECT * FROM $tbl_name ORDER BY category ASC";
$result=mysql_query($sql);

// Count table rows
$count=mysql_num_rows($result);
?>
<!--
<FORM method="post" action="<?php echo $PHP_SELF?>">
-->

<p>
<table border='1' cellspacing='0' width='100%' style='border-collapse: collapse' bordercolor='#000000'>
<form name="form1" method="post" action="">

<tr>
<th>Category/Subcategory</th>
<th>Product/Code</th>
<th>Description</th>
<th>Qty/Price 1</th>
<th>Qty/Price 2 </th>
<th>Qty/Price 3 </th>
<th>Qty/Price 4 </th>
<th>Qty/Price 5 </th>
<th>Weight/Status</th>
</tr>
<?php
while($rows=mysql_fetch_array($result)){
?>
<tr>
<? $id[]=$rows['id']; ?>
<td><input name="category[]" type="text" id="category" value="<? echo $rows['category']; ?>" size="30"><br />
<input name="subcategory[]" type="text" id="subcategory" value="<? echo $rows['subcategory']; ?>" size="30" /></td>
<td><input name="item[]" type="text" id="item" value="<? echo $rows['item']; ?>" size="30"><br />
<input name="code[]" type="text" id="code" value="<? echo $rows['code']; ?>" size="30" /></td>
<td><textarea name="description[]" cols="40" rows="3" id="description" type="text"><? echo $rows['description']; ?></textarea></td>
<td><input name="qty1[]" type="text" id="qty1" value="<? echo $rows['qty1']; ?>" size="5"><br />
<input name="price1[]" type="text" id="price1" value="<? echo $rows['price1']; ?>" size="5" /></td>
<td><input name="qty2[]" type="text" id="qty2" value="<? echo $rows['qty2']; ?>" size="5"><br />
<input name="price2[]" type="text" id="price2" value="<? echo $rows['price2']; ?>" size="5" /></td>
<td><input name="qty3[]" type="text" id="qty3" value="<? echo $rows['qty3']; ?>" size="5"><br />
<input name="price3[]" type="text" id="price3" value="<? echo $rows['price3']; ?>" size="5" /></td>
<td><input name="qty4[]" type="text" id="qty4" value="<? echo $rows['qty4']; ?>" size="5"><br />
<input name="price4[]" type="text" id="price4" value="<? echo $rows['price4']; ?>" size="5" /></td>
<td><input name="qty5[]" type="text" id="qty5" value="<? echo $rows['qty5']; ?>" size="5"><br />
<input name="price5[]" type="text" id="price5" value="<? echo $rows['price5']; ?>" size="5" /></td>
<td><input name="weight[]" type="text" id="weight" value="<? echo $rows['weight']; ?>" size="5"><br />
<input name="status[]" type="text" id="status" value="<? echo $rows['status']; ?>" size="5" /></td>
</tr>
<?php
}
?>
</table>
<input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Submit" class="button1">
</form>
<?php
// Check if button name "Submit" is status, do this

if($Submit){

for($i=0;$i<$count;$i++){

$sql1="UPDATE $tbl_name SET status='$status[$i]', category='$category[$i]', subcategory='$subcategory[$i]', item='$item[$i]', description='$description[$i]', code='$code[$i]', qty1='$qty1[$i]', price1='$price1[$i]', qty2='$qty2[$i]', price2='$price2[$i]', qty3='$qty3[$i]', price3='$price3[$i]', qty4='$qty4[$i]', price4='$price4[$i]', qty5='$qty5[$i]', price5='$price5[$i]', weight='$weight[$i]' WHERE id='$id[$i]'";
$result1=mysql_query($sql1);
}
}

if($result1){
echo "<p>Records Updated</p>";
echo('<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0">');
}
mysql_close();
?>

Thankyou in advance
