addslashes(string)
This function returns a string after it has escaped every characters that needed to be.
This means that it adds a backslash in front of any of the characters listed below.
An escaped character is a character that invokes an alternative interpretation on subsequent characters in a character sequence (wikipedia). When adding an escaped character in front of another character, it changes its meaning. For example, when you add a backslash in frond of an "n", it means "new line". Those characters are the single or double quote, the backslash and the null character.
Note: In the followings examples, the _ between the { should be removed to make it work.
