duplicating backslahes on update with quotes in admins settings page

[jceh]

On the admins screen, under the settings tab, If you add quotes to any of the fields (application name, company name, address, etc...), a backslash will be added next to it when you press the 'Update Settings' button. The backslashes will continue to double in the field if you keep updating the page. The header where the application name is displayed will also show the backslashes.

adding stripslashes when displaying and addslashes when inserting fixs the issue.

Here's the problem... I think. The database is actually being updated correctly, but when it comes back from updating what it is displaying is the updated session variables, which need to be de-slashed... buut only if magicquotes is... on(or maybe off).

You can test this ny updating, let's say the address with a double-quote.. When it comes back to the admin screen you will that nasty slash, but if you immediately log out and back log in, the admin screen is all good.

What this means is that only the current session is getting those yucky slashes.

Another thing to test is to see what the results are with magicquotes turned back on (or off) and see if the is a deviation in the results.

Fixed with changeset [97]. Just needed to stripsalashes when setting the updated settings in the session.
