Description:
------------
While I was submitting a user note this morning (preg_replace, #66344) I noticed that slashes were disappearing in the text rendered for the "Preview," so I escaped every slash (\) with an additional slash (\\) until the preview text showed up as I intended it.  However, once I had submitted the note, it now showed ALL slashes, making the code incorrect, of course.  I had previewed and edited several times before submitting the final note, and I'm certain it appeared correct before submitting.

I think I was using us3.php.net.

1. In general, when text is rendered through the Preview button, backslashes disappear, but when actually adding a note they are all displayed.

2. Specifically, can my note be corrected or deleted?

(PS. I see at least someone else has experienced this issue as well, although I didn't see it in the bug list.  See the user notes for highlight_file() -- messages 61269 and 61265 -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.highlight-file.php#61269)

I took a look at the source for /manual/add-note.php today, and it looks like the preview code needs to be updated to check get_gpc_magic_quotes() which appears to be stored in the global $MQ.

Changing this (line 139 or so):
manual_note_display(time(), stripslashes($user), stripslashes($note), FALSE);

...to this (as it is on lines 92 & 93):
manual_note_display(time(), $MQ ? stripslashes($user): $user, $MQ ? stripslashes($note) : $note, FALSE);

should solve this problem.

dupe of bug#35190
(p.s. I removed the highlight_file() note, did not add any 
real value to the doc)
