Stephen, that page specifies the exact same line for the .htaccess that
he said he used. I'm not sure why it would cause an internal server
error, but I've seen some Apache configurations completely flake over
lines in the .htaccess that were fine elsewhere.
The only thing I can find online where this line will cause a server
error is where the server is set up to allow custom php.ini files which
override the defaults. To test this, try adding a php.ini file into the
directory your script is (this is completely untested, I just saw it on
a forum (http://www.bluehostforum.com/archive/index.php/t-15975.html ))
and enter the regular php.ini line to turn it off.
If that fails, I'd try and contact your hosting provider and see what
they say, as they probably have more information specific to this
problem, as it's most likely a setting of theirs that is causing it.

Have you tried:
ini_set('magic_quotes_gpc', false);
That won't work, because by the time the server comes to process the
script, the data has already been processed. In effect, that line will
do nothing.

Re: [PHP] php.ini setting
Spoke to quickly - still having issues. While the .ini file in each of my appl. folders has magic quotes set to Off, my scripts are still escaping my input - obviously following the server's .ini file settings.

[PHP] php.ini setting
I'm trying to set magic quotes Off as my reading tells me that it's not good to have it defaulted to On. My ISP has this setting (from PHPINFO call): magic_quotes_gpc on From reading the php.net manual I found this line php_flag magic_quotes_gpc on which it says to place in the .htaccess file. I downloaded that file from my server's public_html folder, edited it to put in the above line (which now says Off) and re-uploaded it. Boom! My server no longer works - I get Internal Server Error The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration. If I re-edit my .htaccess, remove the line and re-upload, everything works fine. So - what am I mis-interpreting about how to accomplish this task? -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Re: [PHP] php.ini setting
Solved. Had to have my host provider put a copy of php.ini in my public_html and then I made the magic quotes setting change. Interesting - running a phpinfo command still shows the setting as On becuase it returns the server's settigns, NOT my individual folder setting. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
