Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-03-22 10:00:17] bothie at gmx dot de Description: ------------ Add functions like "long set_magic_quotes_gpc(int new_setting)" Having security in mind, many web application (WA) programmers expect magic_quotes_gpc to be set (or to be not set). It's possible to write WAs which can tolerate both settings but the most easiest ist to have just magic_quotes_gpc being set which is the default of course. But some sites have magic_quotes_gpc not set. So mixing WAs expecting magic_quotes_gpc to be set and WAs expecting magic_quotes_gpc not to be set is impossible. A new introduced function set_magic_quotes_gpc would change that as any program can enforce that setting in that way which it self expects it for it's own runtime. (This feature request should be seen a little bit more general, any other value which could be set in php.ini should get it's set_ counterpart as well except for some exceptions like disable_functions, for which a set- counterpart may not be so wise - or at least a set_disable_function should only be able to ADD additional functions to the set of disabled functions, not to REMOVE any of them specified in php.ini). (I've just seen the ini_set-function and am very disappointed about it NOT supporting a change to magic_quotes_gpc!) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=40890&edit=1
