Escape quotes/strip slashes.

[eluser]jrutter[/eluser]
My insert code isnt stripping quotes and adding slashes, so when a user adds data with quotes, it breaks my application. So Im not sure what I need to do to make this work.

here is my insert code:

Code:

function insert_park()
    {
        $this->park_name   = $_POST['park_name'];
        $this->park_description   = $_POST['park_description'];
        $this->park_website   = $_POST['park_website'];
        $this->park_addr1   = $_POST['park_addr1'];
        $this->park_city   = $_POST['park_city'];
        $this->park_state   = $_POST['park_state'];
        $this->park_zip   = $_POST['park_zip'];
        $this->park_visible   = $_POST['park_visible'];
        
        $this->db->insert('parks_tbl', $this);
        
    }

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
