Answer 1

PHP is automatically escaping the string.

You can use stripslashes to remove the unwanted slashes.

You could also use the GLOB_NOESCAPE flag in your glob() call.

PHP Manual: stripslashes
PHP Manual: glob

Answer 2

Maybe it's escaping the '/' out?

anyways, it shouldn't matter, when JS parses the json, it probably will ignore it...
