[PHP] stripslashes and quoted material

[Gerard Samuel]

Hey all. I noticed a string containing slashes was breaking some code of mine on an w2k/IIS box running php 4.2.3.
For example ->

<a href=\"http://www.apache.org/\"; target=\"_blank\">


When trying to apply stripslashes, the slashes remained. So I applied str_replace('\"', '', $var) and that worked.
Any idea as to why stripslashes would not remove the slashes in the string?

Thanks for any input.
