Images break and URL's stripped

Hi Guys

Tried to find an answer to this one with no luck, so maybe someone can help me out here.
I've implemented my CKeditor onto my site, but run into a small problem.

Every time i add an image (URL not uploaded) or a link, using exact links or file paths, CKeditor seems to break them and strips the URL from the code.

For example - i added this link via the editor - http://farm6.staticflickr.com/5468/7383 ... f3d5_o.jpg
Once i save it the url in the code is stripped leaving this:
<a href="\">http://farm6.staticflickr.com/5468/7383153112_c7f734f3d5_o.jpg</a>

Whenever i add an image via the editor, as soon as i save the article it breaks the image, and leaves this code behind:
<img alt="\&quot;\&quot;" data-cke-saved-src="\" src="\&quot;http://freeimagesarchive.com/data/media/8/5_images.jpg\&quot;" style="\&quot;width:" 554px;="" height:="" 422px;="" \"="">

Link to the article with the broken image: http://www.wasabiface.com/test/cms/?act ... rticleId=4

So i've probably done something wrong or not set a configuration that's required, but going out of my mind as i cannot seem to find out what i need to change to have these output correctly.

Just need a pointer on what i need to do to make sure that this doesn't occur so i can add images and links into my articles via the editor.

Cheers in advance - Wasabiface

Re: Images break and URL's stripped

Thanks Seb - the stripslashes () function worked a treat.

Just for others if they have the same issue and coming to look for a resolution, i had 2 files:

editArticle.php

Just added the stripslashes around the $results variable for the content area.

   <textarea cols="80" id="content" name="content" rows="10"><?php echo stripslashes( $results['article']->content )?></textarea>
      
          </li>
       <script type="text/javascript">
      //<![CDATA[
         // Replace the <textarea id="editor1"> with an CKEditor instance.
         var editor = CKEDITOR.replace( 'content' );
      //]]>
      </script>
