    Correct. But not what (I think) you were trying to show.

    Not so correct.

    Does 9==90? No, because that added zero *after* the number means something.
    It's when you add a zero *before* the number does it not affect the value.

    I'd like to assume that was a typo, but with the Internet as it is, who knows...

    you might want to do a double stripslashes to completely remove 3 consecutive slashes

    $stripped = 'this is a string with three\\\ slashes';
    $stripped = stripslahses($stripped);
    would output:
    'this is a string with three\ slashes'

    $stripped = 'this is a string with three\\\ slashes';
    $stripped = stripslahses(stripslashes($stripped));
    would output:
    'this is a string with three slashes'
