This small function walks through a complete array without a "normal" loop and convert all potentially "bad" inputs like $_POST and $_GET to mysql conform strings.

<?php
function db_conform($s)
{
	if (!is_array($s)) mysql_real_escape_string($s);
	function db_conform_array_callback(&$item, $key) { echo $key; $item = db_conform($item); }
	array_walk($s, 'db_conform_array_callback');
	return $s;
}

$_POST = db_conform($_POST);
