$4
Apostrophes being escaped on options page output

http://www.pandagaming.com.au/
The content is not run off posts but is from a wordpress options panel.
The content being saved in the options panel is escaping ' this and outputing /'

How can I add a function to eliminate this problem.

This is sample of how items are retrieved:
  <div class="pic"></div><?php $pandagaming_01_title = get_option('pandagaming_01_title'); ?><?php $pandagaming_01_desc = get_option('pandagaming_01_desc'); ?>

   <div class="box"> <span id="lobster3" class="greendark"><?php echo $pandagaming_01_title; ?></span>

    <p><?php echo $pandagaming_01_desc; ?></p>

   </div>


As you see there is no wordpress loop.

      do I need to define esc_attr in functions?

      <?php echo stripslashes($pandagaming_01_title); ?>
