[SOLVED] fwrite() quotation marks escaping.

[lszanto]

I've been using fwrite a fair bit to edit a stylesheet but for some reason everytime I put in a single quotation like ' or normal quotation marks like " it comments them out when I open the file stuffing everything up e.g " will become \" does anybody know how to fix this?

Could you post the code?

[MadTechie]

i don't think thats fwrite,

review other parts of your code

You may want to look at these two functions.

 

stripslashes ()

addslashes ()

Ok here is my code.

					//Get vars.
				$style = $_POST['style'];

				//Open file for writing.
				$fh = fopen($path . "text.css", "w");

				//Write data.
				$write = fwrite($fh, $style);

				//Check if works.
				if($write) {
					//Close file.
					fclose($fh);

					//Echo results.
					echo "<p>\n\nYour styles have been updated, please click <a href=\"view_news.php\" target=\"_blank\" >here</a> to see the changes.";
				}

 

I'll check the stripslashes() function now.

[MadTechie]

use stripslashes() after the $_POST

Hey Mad, I do all the work, and you get credit for it.

[MadTechie]

Sends a credit note to igor berger

Thanx for the credit, but just joking.

 

As far as hard work, if you need a certain function and you do not know about it, you might as well bang your head against the wall.

 

It took me a few years before I found it by accident.

That why we get paid big bucks for little work.

That is when we on the clock, not here.
