Proposal:
**********
I. Availalbe functions:
-------------------
* input_get
Gets variable from outside PHP or from a userland variable and
optionally filters it using one filter and its options or flags. It
accepts only scalar by default, array can be returned using
ALLOW_ARRAY.
Looks good.
* input_get_args
Gets multiple variables from outside PHP or from a userland variable
and optionally filters them using different filters and options/flags.
It accepts only scalar by default, array can be returned using
ALLOW_ARRAY.
The current documentation page shows an example where all return values
are an array:
array(6) {
["product_id"]=>
array(1) {
[0]=>
string(17) "libgd%3Cscript%3E"
}
...
I would prefer if it would return
array(6) {
["product_id"]=>
string(17) "libgd%3Cscript%3E"
...
unless FILTER_FLAG_ARRAY is given in which case it should behave like
before. This would make it easier to use the filtered values IMHO.
* input_has_variable
Checks if variable of specified type exists.
* input_name_to_filter
Returns the filter ID belonging to a named filter
* input_ filters_ list
Returns a list of all supported filters
II input_get usages
II.1 without options or flags
?mystring=<b>bold</b>
input_get(INPUT_POST, 'mystring', FILTER_SANITIZE_SPECIAL_CHARS);
The documentation mentions 99 as $_REQUEST for input type right now. I'd
prefer to be able to say INPUT_GET | INPUT_POST to get values from a
combination of sources. Or at least have INPUT_REQUEST as constant
definition instead of 99.
My two cents,
