TinyMCE insert image not working

There are a few similar questions on SO, but none explain the problem I am having.

I am using TomatoCMS hosted on 1and1.

The problem I am having is with:

tinyMCE.getInstanceById('content').execCommand('mceInsertContent', false, '<img src="' + url + '" alt="" />');

Where url could be http://example.com/uploads/123.jpg

The image is correctly inserted into the tinymce preview area, however the content of the original textarea is set to:

<img src="%5C" alt="\"\"" />

This therefore what is saved to the database.

Does anyone have a solution for this?

This is caused by PHP Magic Quotes.

To solve, place a php.ini file in the root of the website containing:

magic_quotes_gpc = Off
magic_quotes_runtime = Off
magic_quotes_sybase = Off

I found this solution in a post about another software package hosting on 1and1. How to install Precurio on 1and1 servers

I am not perfectly sure, what goes wrong here, but i guess it might have to do with the encoding. You may try the configuration settings provided for this: http://www.tinymce.com/wiki.php/Configuration:entity_encoding
