note 73658 added to function.stripslashes

When writing to a flatfile such as an HTML page you'll notice slashes being inserted. When you write to that page it's interesting how to apply stripslashes... I replaced this line... <?php fwrite($file, $_POST['textarea']); ?> With... <?php if (get_magic_quotes_gpc()) {fwrite ($file, stripslashes($_POST['textarea']));}?> You have to directly apply stripslashes to $_POST, $_GET, $_REQUEST, and $_COOKIE. ---- Server IP: 216.194.113.175 Probable Submitter: 68.56.173.233 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.stripslashes.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/73658 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/73658/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/73658/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/73658/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/73658/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/73658/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/73658/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/73658 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/73658 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
