What I think is happening is this:
In commentbox.php the Handle...Post functions returning
$_POST['text']; correctly, with the previous page content added.
Then it is handed to HandleEdit($pagename);
Here stripmagic is removing backslashes, and the result is the bug.

Code in HandleEdit in pmwiki.php:
 foreach((array)$EditFields as $k)
    if (isset($_POST[$k])) $new[$k]=str_replace("\r",'',stripmagic($_POST[$k]));

As  $_POST['text'] is set stripmagic is called.

Any idea how to prevent this?


Best,
