Strange slashes appearing in site text?

[Hwona]

Hi! Has anyone else noticed these strange slashes wherever you add a apostrophe? For example:
it's
turns into:
it'/s

Does anyone know how to fix this? :3

It's something happening in the database settings I think, when it won't accept them. It really 'bugs', haha.

Would be neat to have them go away :)

I suspect it might have something to do with... collition? Something like that... O.o

[Missy Master]

Maybe....? I just use its instead of it's, etc, but it would be great to be able to use correct grammar and have it take it ..

Right now this other item bug is just about to shut down my site, it's a pretty major thing.

Well, you can change the collation to hp8_english_ci, but I'm too scared to test whether or not this will fix the problem... :L

Well inside your database it's supposed to have slashes, this is done by the script to filter SQL injection or related hacks. In theory the slashes are stripped after you load it from database, but for some reason it aint happening. I think the fix should be easy, just need to find out which script/url you see these slashes on.

Umm I got this:

But I think I have an idea now, post your view/shopview.php and I will see if I can edit some lines there to fix this issue for you.

Oh, sorry about that! - And I'm using v.1.3.3, so there's no shop view... should I post the class files instead? :3

umm with version 1.3.3 it can be a bit tricky. Post shop.php and class_shop.php and I will see if I can fix it for you. The code may be in other class files too, but lets try the most likely scripts first.
