 * Hi,
    I have a page here [here](http://www.floopie.com/) that pulls in the last
   10 posts from 2 of my blogs. The titles have slashes in them. It’s not the WP
   code, but the code I used to pull them in. I think. Here’s the code: `Last 10
   recipes:`
 *  <?php $wpcook = $wpdb->get_results("SELECT ID, post_title FROM wpcookposts WHERE
   post_status = 'publish' order by post_date desc limit 10");
    foreach ($wpcook
   as $v) { echo " ID."'>" . $v->post_title . " "; } ;?> Any help in getting rid
   of the slashes would be great. I tried to put stripslashes in the code, but no
   luck. Thanks, Sara 🙂

 * You could try this right after you start the foreach:
    `stripslashes($v);`

 * Why not?
    Anyhow, there are some “recent posts” plugins/hacks in wiki, might 
   want to take a look at it

 * Alphaoide, I have the recent plugins on my blog. I want to accomplish something
   different for the front page.
