I do not believe that the following problem has anything to do with the Modx system but rather the server it rests on. But if there is anyone that contribute any knowledge is welcomed. I have made several websites all with Modx but the sites are with different service providers, all reputable. Two of the Modx websites are with one particular provider, lets call it host provider A. When I built the sites and continued to manage them A there as no problems at first (they have been up for a couple of years). However two days ago I was working one of these sites on provider A, and a very strange thing happened. Whenever I saved something, whether a Template or Chunk or Snippet, the code was re-written! That's right, re-written! Backslashes appeared in all of the tags! So I panicked then I checked the other sites on the other providers to see if it was a glitch in the Modx system. They worked fine. Apparently it only occurred on provider A. So I decided to re-install the Modx and upgrade to 1.06 on one the sites on provider A. (My sites are still running with 1.05). After upgrading, it happened again! I checked the other site that is also on provider A and it also had the problem. Finally I had to do my work directly on the database. I contacted provider A with details of the problem and they have no idea what is wrong. (Incidentally I emailed my client begging them to change service providers). Here is an example of what happens:
This is my template before I saved it:
<head>
<title>[(site_name)] | [*pagetitle*]</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=[(modx_charset)]" />
<base href="[(site_url)]" />
<link rel="stylesheet" href="assets/templates/css/style.css" type="text/css" media="screen" />
</head>
</head>
<body>
<div id="wrapper">
<div id="container">
<div id="top"> </div>
<div id="content">
<h3>[*longtitle*]</h3>
[*content*]
</div>
<div id="nav">{{nav}}
<div class="lowercase">{{news}}</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
This is my template after I saved it:
<head>
<title>[(site_name)] | [*pagetitle*]</title>
<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html; charset=[(modx_charset)]\" />
<base href=\"[(site_url)]\" />
<link rel=\"stylesheet\" href=\"assets/templates/css/style.css\" type=\"text/css\" media=\"screen\" />
</head>
</head>
<body>
<div id=\"wrapper\">
<div id=\"container\">
<div id=\"top\"> </div>
<div id=\"content\">
<h3>[*longtitle*]</h3>
[*content*]
</div>
<div id=\"nav\">{{nav}}
<div class=\"lowercase\">{{news}}</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
As you all can see, backslashes appear in the tags. This happens whenever I save anything! Pretty weird huh?
Anybody know why?
