note 69584 added to function.stripslashes

Be aware! stripslashes seems to be locale specific. I've run into this on standard variable checks in an application which uses setlocale(). Consider following code: <?php $float = 0.10; // $float is now float 0.10 setlocale(LC_ALL,'C'); $r = stripslashes($float); // $r is now string "0.10" setlocale(LC_ALL,'pl_PL'); $r = stripslashes($float); // $r is now string "0,10" ?> Note the change in decimal point character! This is tested on PHP 5.1.6. For this to work you need to have used locales installed in test enviroment. Insted of 'pl_PL' you can probably use any locale that uses non dot decimal point character. I'm not shure is this a feature or a bug but it's something unexpected as it's not mensioned in the manual as far as I know. And it's easy to criple database input with this so I'm going to submit a bug report on this. ---- Server IP: 83.64.128.68 Probable Submitter: 83.6.251.55 (proxied: 10.1.2.10) ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.stripslashes.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/69584 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/69584/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/69584/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/69584/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/69584/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/69584/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/69584/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/69584 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/69584 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
