note 86334 added to security.magicquotes.whynot

Another reason against it: security. You could be lulled in a feeling of false security if you have magic_quotes=On on a test server and Off on production server. And another: readability of the code. If you want to be portable you need to resort to some weird solution, outlines on these pages (if (get_magic_quotes())...). Let's hope magic_quotes soon goes to history together with safe_mode and similar "kind-of-security" (but in reality just a nuisance) inventions. ---- Server IP: 91.185.195.14 Probable Submitter: 193.95.231.211 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/security.magicquotes.whynot.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/86334 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/86334/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/86334/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/86334/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/86334/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/86334/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/86334/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/86334 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/86334 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
