get_magic_quotes_gpc interferring

[DJTim666]

I am outputting information in a text box the following way;

 

<?php
$findInfo = mysql_query ("SELECT * FROM `table_name` WHERE `id` = '$var'");
$row = mysql_fetch_array ( $findInfo );

echo "<form action='somescript.php' method='post'>
<input type='text' name='title' value='" . stripslashes ( $row['title'] ) . "' />
</form>";

?>

 

Now when I output using stripslashes(or no stripslashes) I can't see the whole topic name because it is cut off when someone has a ' in the topic. Is there any other way to output something so the users will see just a single quote without the backslash?

You also need to use htmlentities() so that things like quotes are treated as literal characters instead of being interpreted by the bowser.

Hmm, that still doesn't work. I only get the message up til the quote .
