$_REQUEST value appearing in \'value\'
<p>i am trying this to pass a value to the next PHP page:</p>

<pre><code>    $("#see_comments").attr({href: "comments.php?aid='"+imgnum+"'"});
</code></pre>

<p>and in the PHP file I am using:</p>

<pre><code>$aid = $_REQUEST[aid];
echo $aid;
</code></pre>

<p>but this is displaying the output like this:</p>

<pre><code>\'9\'
</code></pre>

<p>why is this happening? 
//9 is the value i am passing.</p>
