use stripslashes again when you load it into the textarea

[ecabrera]

so like this

 

<form action='adminpanel.php' method='POST'>

<table>

<tr>

<td>Intro</td>

<td><textarea name='intro' cols=50 rows=15><?php echo  stripslashes($intro); ?></textarea></td>

</tr>

<tr>

<td>Latest News</td>

<td><textarea name='latestnews' cols=50 rows=15><?php echo  stripslashes($latestnews); ?></textarea></td>

</tr>

<tr>

<td>Main Content</td>

<td><textarea name='maincontent' cols=50 rows=15><?php echo  stripslashes($maincontent); ?></textarea></td>

</tr>

<tr>

<td>Main Videos</td>

<td><textarea name='mainvideos' cols=50 rows=15><?php echo  stripslashes($mainvideos); ?></textarea></td>

</tr>

<tr>

<td></td>

<td><input type='submit' name='update' value='Update'></td>

</tr>

</table>

</form>

I've already told you how to solve all of these problems you're having with backslashes, but you keep ignoring it. Why is that?

[ecabrera]

becaue it doesnt not work  TwoSaints is right if i use them in the textarea none of the \\ will show

The problem is with the way you are inserting the data into the database to begin with. The data is being double escaped. All you're doing is making a mess of things now because you keep ignoring good advice and putting bandaid after bandaid on things. It's going to come back to haunt you, but by that time it's going to be too late to do anything about it.
