I have an issue with the latest CVS' forum formatting.

(Yes I know it's CVS and there is no official support, but I would like to know if any others are experiencing the same issue and know of any ways of fixing it).

When a user creates a post, or a news article (anything really) that contains quote marks it will backslash them out and really screw up the page.

For example if I were to write:

The link doesnt't work for me

it would display as:

The link doesnt\'t work for me

and when someone quotes someone like this:

Code:

[quote="Norbie"]Hello[/quote]

It displays like this:

\"Norbie\ wrote:

Hello

instead of:

Norbie wrote:

Hello

Everytime you edit a post which has had backslashes added to it because there are quotemarks present, it adds a couple more slashes!

Here are some crazy examples!

^ This post has been edited, and has now got loads of back slashes!

^ Example of the quote function messing up the page because speech marks were used.

i think Fix_POST Function causing it. $_POST is an array so its walk to Fix_POST Function then its have a checking like magic_quotes_gpc or magic_quotes_sybase is set to true. If those true then its doing stripslashes for it.

Is this something I can fix?

I don't know enough about what you said

you can turn magic quotes gpc/sybase on or off in the php.ini file if you have acess to it.

So turning this off should fix it?
