更新Twitter状态：字符转义和URL

Question

I pass text from a POST variable from a form on my site to Twitter and I save this message on my own site. When I view the entry on my site it is absoultly fine. However, in some cases when there is an apostrophe in the message twitter updates the status of a user but escapes the apostrophes and this can be seen on the users status!

This doesn't happen when I update my twitter status on the twitter site. So I am wondering is there a way I need to pass text to twitter?

I currently do this and I make use of this awesome Twitter class. http://github.com/jmathai/twitter-async/tree

$success = $twitterObj->post_statusesUpdate(array('status' => $_POST['message'].$URL.$key));

In addition, passing URLs to twitter use to automatically link the URL but now this just appears as text?

Has twitter made changes in the past month that would cause the above to happen? If not how can I overcome this?

Thanks all

EDIT

More Code:

function tweetit(){
    global $URL;
    global $key;

    include './twitter/EpiCurl.php';
    include './twitter/EpiOAuth.php';
    include './twitter/EpiTwitter.php';

    $consumer_key = 'hidden';
    $consumer_secret = 'hidden';

    $twitterObj = new EpiTwitter($consumer_key, $consumer_secret);

    $twitterObj->setToken($_SESSION['oauth_token'], $_SESSION['oauth_token_secret']);

    $success = $twitterObj->post_statusesUpdate(array('status' =>  $_POST['message'].' '.$URL.$key));

    return $success->response['id']; 
}

Sounds like your php config has magic_quotes_gpc turned on, which automagically calls addslashes on all input (e.g., your POST values). I'd read up on addslashes/stripslashes in the php manual.
