note 22788 deleted from function.addslashes by philip

Note Submitter: ---- I think it’s a big prob that addslashes keeps adding slashes if you run it over and over on the same var. For ex. If magic quotes are on (witch is usually always) this would happen.. open this script with ?log=joe’s_dog echo $_GET[‘log’] would print “joe/’s_dog” but if you insert that to a db, and use addslashes like every tutorial says out there… You end up with a “joe//’s_dog". There needs to be an optional pram to skip if already slashed, the func below isn’t the best way cuz if the data inside has /’ in it for some reason it would think addslashes has gotten to it.. An internal function change is really the only easy way to fix the slash fight. Heres a basic func that tell if the info is already slashed.. function is_slashed($data) { if(stripslashes($data) == $data) { return 0; } else { return 1; } }
