Note Submitter: Captain America ---- IMHO gpc magic quotes are absolutely ill-featured, here is a way to fight them! :) Place it before any other code that uses $_GET, $_POST or $_COOKIES. Works with multi-dimensional arrays! WARNING: if you choose to stip the slashes, be sure to always add them manually if you insert GPC vars in a SQL-query. addslashes() and mysql_escape_string() are your friends. function & strip_slashes(&$str) { if(is_array($str)) { while(list($key, $val) = each($str)) { $str[$key] = strip_slashes($val); } } else { $str = stripslashes($str); } return $str; } if(get_magic_quotes_gpc()) { strip_slashes($_GET); strip_slashes($_POST); strip_slashes($_COOKIES); }
