Okay, I am fairly new to php, I have only been using it about 1-3 months, and I have a problem with a form input. I am trying to remove any html tags that have been submitted and have them show/echo as plain text, and I used htmlentities(), and this works, except when I enter a quote in the form and submit it, it adds a \ before the quote. Heres my script: [code]<?
$self= $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];
$txt = $_POST['txt'];
if( $txt == NULL ){
$form ="<form method=\"post\" name=\"txt_check\" action=\"$self\">";
$form.="Enter Some Text: ";
$form.="<input type=\"text\" name=\"txt\" value=\"Some Text Here\" onfocus=\"if(this.value=='Some Text Here') this.value = '';\" onblur=\"if(this.value == '') this.value = 'Some Text Here';\"/> ";
$form.="<input type=\"submit\" value=\"Submit\" onSubmit=\"this.value='Submitting...'; this.disabled=true;\"/>";
echo $form;
}
else{
$msg = htmlentities($txt);
echo "Why Did You Write $msg?";
}
?>[/code] What did i do wrong?

try
[code=php:0]
if(isset($txt)) {
....
}
[/code]

What are magic quotes? And were is the if statement supposed to go? (I am completely clueless, sorry.)
