Ahh... I thought that's what set_magic_quotes_runtime() did. I see now it's gpc and it can't be set at runtime. Excellent. :)

Yup, what Mykeul said. PHP doesn't add slashes to *any* POST data, it adds it to any post data *if and only if* the magi_quotes_gpc settings is present and flagged to true. Therefore, I suggest code at the top of the program (probably in main.inc?) that runs through the POST and GET variables and strips slashes only if magic_quotes is turned on. Alternatively, we could add slashes if magic_quotes is not turned on and then strip them at output.
There are several examples of code that do just that here:

to quote to any POST data. That's why PHP has a built in function called stripslashes and addslashes. You're supposed to run stripslashes on any POST data that is to be displayed, really...

It is the magic_quotes problem, isnt it ?

Using stripslashes removes those uneccessary escape slashes around
quotes.
It's absolutely needed.

To me it seems that stripslashes isn't what we're looking for.

Is there a standard for checking in patches if you have access to
CVS?
I've
fixed this, but I wanted to check and see what the procedure was for
checking
in small fixes like this.
