jQuery escaping and I don't want it to

I'm trying to do inline editing for my website using jQuery so I can edit the HTML and text of a page without having to change the source. When I submit the form data though jQuery's $.ajax function, it escapes all the quotes. How can I either prevent jQuery from escaping this(probably a bad idea) or remove them on the PHP side of things. I tired stripslashes...but that didn't do anything. I know it's jQuery because if I do htmlentities() before submitting the text to MySQL...the slashes are still added.

It's not jQuery, it's PHP. jQuery doesn't do any escaping.
See magic quotes. stripslashes should work, not sure why it didn't work for you.
This topic should be moved to PHP section.
