Hi,

I have a form with some js. Weirdly, every time I save the form I see additional "\" characters added to the code, e.g., before:

jQuery('input[name=wpcf-quantity]').change(calculate_price);

after form is saved twice:

jQuery(\\\'input[name=wpcf-quantity]\\\').change(calculate_price);

I am not sure when exactly it started, I'm sure it worked some time ago. Recently I updated Toolset plugins, so this is why I am reporting the issue here. I deactivated a few recently added plugins, but it didn't change anything. Maybe the js notation I use is wrong?
