note 93649 added to function.unserialize

However, one handy tip saved the day. //to safely serialize $safe_string_to_store = base64_encode(serialize($multidimensional_array)); //to unserialize... $array_restored_from_db = unserialize(base64_decode($encoded_serialized_string)); http://davidwalsh.name/php-serialize-unserialize-issues ---- Server IP: 92.48.74.199 Probable Submitter: 87.194.137.144 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.unserialize.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/93649 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/93649/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/93649/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/93649/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/93649/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/93649/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/93649/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/93649 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/93649 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
