formatting does not appear and certain characters are escaped out

I am using the latest standard wiki module in Moodle v1.5.3+. There are two very odd behaviors.
1) formatting (i.e. bold, underline, etc) does not appear when the page is saved. It looks correct in the text editor, but does not save to the wiki.
2) certain characters (like ' or \) are escaped out when one saves a page. For instance, when I save the word "don't" it would appear as "don\'t"
Has anyone else seen this?

this is the version info for my wiki module:
<?PHP // $Id: version.php,v 1.14 2005/03/10 13:30:55 moodler Exp $
$module->version = 2005031000; // The current module version (Date: YYYYMMDDXX)

I think I figured out what is causing the behavior I am observing in the standard wiki module. It appears to be related to my magic_quotes_gpc PHP setting in the main php.ini. When I turn that "On", wiki formatting appears to work again.

I hope this is it.
