How to Strip Slashes With PHP
The PHP programming language has a large number of built in functions that help programmers by reducing the need to write basic or repetitive code.

Backslashes can be inadvertently added to strings that contain quotation marks, so this is useful for removing slashes before displaying or storing the string.
