asked on

backslahes go to my db after moving to new server adn version of php

I've ask this before, but still having issues and want to ask it another way
we moved our php/mysql apps to an updated server. We updated from php 4.1 to 4.4

prior to move if you entered a name or word with and aprostrophe, (o'mally, that's) it was entered into the db correctly and retrieved from the db correctly.  Now I get the affect below when client retrieves the data.

What setting do i need to look for on the new server that has not be set correctly to match what was on the older server?

I did add that, now i have to add to aobut 100 app.  I just want to know what changed from old version to this one - that it's no longer working.
What was wrong with my answer?  Why did you mark this down to a "B" ??
