When i am using mysql_real_escape_string on my unescaped strings the data in the database is storing with the backslashes which should not happen.
I have magic_quotes_gpc OFF not sure why this is happening. Any idea ?
Is there any setting in the mysql database which needs to be modified.
I am not using addslashes any where in the code. PHP language.
Please help.
There are several variants of magic_quotes all of which are very invasive and cannot be overridden. I think its unlikely that that extra escaping is being done by the DBMS.
Have you checked what the data looks like before applying the mysql_real_escape_string() – I would bet its already escaped somehow.
