note 49226 added to function.addcslashes

Forgot to add something: The only time you would likely use addcslashes() without specifying the backslash (\) character in charlist is when you are VALIDATING (not encoding!) a data string. (Validation ensures that all control characters and other unsafe characters are correctly encoded / escaped, but does not alter any pre-existing escape sequences.) You can validate a data string multiple times without fear of "double encoding". A single decoding pass will return the original data, regardless of how many times it was validated.) ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.addcslashes.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+49226 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+49226&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+49226&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+49226&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+49226&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+49226&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+49226&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
