Update ... when I remove the following code which comes before the code above it works. Anyone know why it does not work when the following code is in there and/or how I can modify the following code so I can keep it in and still get the array to work. I have register globals off and want to protect the data going into a database which is what I thought the purpose of the following code was for. foreach($HTTP_POST_VARS as $k=>$v){ if (get_magic_quotes_gpc()){ $HTTP_POST_VARS[$k] = stripslashes($v); $HTTP_POST_VARS[$k] = mysql_escape_string($HTTP_POST_VARS[$k]); } else { $HTTP_POST_VARS[$k] = mysql_escape_string($v); } eval( "\$$k = \"$HTTP_POST_VARS[$k]\";" ); } -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
