I moved my php wmnews system on a cobalt raq4i with php4.1-1 and MySQL 3.23.37 (yes I will upgrade)

It worked fine in my old system. But in my Cobalt, my php wmnews will not save articles with single quotation marks.

wmnews uses FixQuotes... I already tried replacing Fixqoutes with addslashes, but addslashes only duplicates the entire page upon clicking preview and will not also save.(Found this in php bug summary report.

bug: 10372 Duplicate php addslashes() the entire page)

I even tried turning on magic quotes gpc but it didn't work. Could this be a mysql problem instead of php? what's wrong with cobalts?

PHP 4.0.3 and higher has a mysql_escape_string function. Maybe that would work better for you.
