note 118970 added to filter.filters.sanitize

To include multiple flags, simply separate the flags with vertical pipe symbols. For example, if you want to use filter_var() to sanitize $string with FILTER_SANITIZE_STRING and pass in FILTER_FLAG_STRIP_HIGH and FILTER_FLAG_STRIP_LOW, just call it like this: $string = filter_var($string, FILTER_SANITIZE_STRING, FILTER_FLAG_STRIP_HIGH | FILTER_FLAG_STRIP_LOW); The same goes for passing a flags field in an options array in the case of using callbacks. $var = filter_var($string, FILTER_SANITIZE_SPECIAL_CHARS, array('flags' => FILTER_FLAG_STRIP_LOW | FILTER_FLAG_ENCODE_HIGH)); Thanks to the Brain Goo blog at popmartian.com/tipsntricks/for this info. ---- Server IP: 72.52.91.14 Probable Submitter: 73.66.59.113 ---- Manual Page -- http://php.net/manual/en/filter.filters.sanitize.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/118970 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/118970/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/118970/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/118970/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/118970/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/118970/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/118970/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/118970 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/118970 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
