SYMPTOMS
I see \'s in SQL and HTMP output from PHP and it causes the SQL to error and the HTML to display incorrectly. CAUSE Your host has turned on "magic quotes". This is a feature of little value and only causes confusion. Consequently most hosting companies do not switch this feature on. SOLUTION There are three solutions: 1. Turn it off by adding the following to your .htaccess file: CODE php_flag magic_quotes_gpc off 2. Ask your host to switch it off in the PHP.ini file. 3. If your host blocks the use of .htaccess files (very few do) and will not change the PHP.ini so that magic quotes are NOT used then the only option is to switch hosting companies. |

The \\\\\' have been in the files since I started day one but the disappearance of the ISB and the missing submit button happened quickly after I was playing around withe block editor and also I had a bit of a play around with the virtual page thingy. the ISB worked fine on both public and members pages before I played around with it. I have installed the traffic exchange in another folder just to see if it works and it seems to , the only thing that doesn -------------------- |
