Issue with a message of the day input box?

Hello.

 

I'm not sure if this is where I should post this, so I apologize if I'm in the wrong place. 

 

I help someone run a website.  For the website, there is a message of the day that I can edit/modify/completely change and whatnot.  On a moderator page, there's an editable textbox that contains the current message of the day.  I can edit the current one and input whatever I want.  It operates under HTML tags, so if I want to make something bold, I use the <b> tag, and so on and so forth.

 

However, there's an issue - after inputing certain characters (usually punctuation) and saving, it replaces that character with a \character.  For instance, "don't" would be replaced with "don\'t".

 

I don't have access to the code, so I cannot edit the code used to save/whatever, so I was wondering if there was something I could input so that it doesn't replace ' with \' (or for any character that it's been doing that for)?  If there's no way to get around this without editing the code, it would be helpful if you told me that, as well.
