Fair enough, as I said in my last post in the magic_quotes thread, it is easy to keep this function. I will modify the patch to keep the related functions (returning always false). Is is ok? Now about the ini entries, ini_get("removed_entry") will always return 0 (false), which is exactly the same as an entry set to off. Do we really want a E_CORE_ERROR if they are still set to on or used? --Pierre
