Re: PHP code in form field - var_export() (slashes)?

I'm storing some multi-dimensional associative arrays in the file and then when I need the values somewhere I just include the file and voila my arrays are defined. Seemed better than looping through arrays writing to a file and then using the same loop structure to read lines from the file and assign back to the same array that I had it in in the first place.
