I'm trying to do inline editing for my website using jQuery so I can edit the HTML and text of a page without having to change the source. When I submit the form data though jQuery's $.ajax function, it escapes all the quotes. How can I either prevent jQuery from escaping this(probably a bad idea) or remove them on the PHP side of things. I tired stripslashes...but that didn't do anything. I know it's jQuery because if I do htmlentities() before submitting the text to MySQL...the slashes are still added.

`htmlspecialchars()` is almost always preferred to `htmlentities()` despite what Chris Shiflett says in his book. – Ollie Saunders Oct 25 '09 at 05:43

It's not jQuery that's magic_quotes
in PHP. Here's how you can remove them.
