it looks like php automatically escapes those characters, Eel. It's nothing you did.

\"PHP will automatically escape special characters entered into HTML. This is helpful when sending data back to the browser (as in this example where the quotation marks would interfere with the print() statement if not for being escaped) and when enterin
g it into databases.\"

I don't know php at all, but if you can print() to a stream and then use that output, you should be in good shape. Else, you'd need your own code to unescape (which might be as simple as deleting all backslashes, except for the special case of double-ba
ckslashes: where you'd delete only one.)

Thanks. If I have to, I should be able to run it through some code to
remove them.

You can scan for it when your doing your keyword scan.

I'm sure we're all thrilled at getting a new thread every time someone
posts from eel's web thingy, but how about keeping all this stuff to
the same thread? You know, common courtesy and all that.

Since Eel is accused by Thomas (also using anon sock puppets) of editing
text, then the source of the escaped characters, as well as the solution,
is a very germaine topic and is also separate from other threads about the
W2N

You also had a poster demanding that source be published. All of this goes
to credibility - or alternatively, to safety.

Besides, the whole topic injects something fresh into this group, which has
been otherwise empty except for the misplaced rantings of looney
Boschloo/deJoode and the MI5 looney and the skating looney.

At the same time, anyone is free to simply ignore (or filter) any post with
'Eel' in the subject.
