Re: Solved: Backslash-apostrophe POOF.

The problem was solved by changing this,

<input value = '<? echo $value ?>'>

to,

<input value = "<? echo stripslashes($value) ?>">
Should be either

<input value="<?= htmlentities(stripslashes($value)); ?>">

or

<input value="<?php echo htmlentities(stripslashes($value)); ?>">

See <http://php.net/htmlentities>, and
<http://php.net/manual/en/ini.core.phpand
<http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=16838>.
How that backslash got there remains a mystery.
Perhaps an extra addslashes() or
