Hey Marcus,
Lots of different ways...first, the \ is being added because you have
magic_quotes turned on...you can use set_magic_quotes_runtime to turn
them off in a specific script, edit your php.ini file to turn them off
completely, or just do a string replace - replace \' with ' and \"
with "
best of luck,
jack dempsey
