Hello,

Here I've got a few related questions, which are not stated explicitly 
in the manual.

1. The manual says that the magic_quotes_gpc setting cannot be set at
   runtime. Is it not possible to set this setting in an ini file, and
   parse it with the parse_ini_file() function? Also, if this was
   possible, what will PHP do to the modified variables? Run the
   stripslashes() functions on all of them?
No, this would be the same as runtime.

2. On a related line, are we allowed to use ini values in our ini file
   that contradict the defined ini values in php.ini? Won't this confuse
   the parser?
No, this will not confuse the parser. And it will not have any effect on 
php settings.

3. What would I do if I didn't have access to my own custom ini file,
   but could somehow get the file either by using fopen(), file() or
   file_get_contents()? Can I parse a string (or array) like an ini
   file?
You can do with a file whatever you are allowed to do, but it will not 
have any effect on php settings unless you use ini_set() function. Still 
you will be able to change only settings that can be changed during runtime.

4. Does parse_ini_file() allow us to specify absolute filenames of the
   form scheme://... from another server, if our allow_url_fopen
   is TRUE?
I don't know. Why don't you try it?

Thank You.

You can use .htaccess files to change php settings as described in the 
documentation.
