Oh, I realize this interpretation only now!

Yes I read it this way, no problem! 

I was just wondering myself... and finally consulted the "Pons" dictionnary 
that only mentions "sanitize" but says it covers british / northamerican / 
australian vocabulary. 

But the british/american distinction seems plausible, since I also read 
"sanitise" from native english speakers (and in advisories from big companies 
if I remember correctly). 
Hm... anybody has the definitive answer (to this detail)? 

Wish you much fun programming!

Hans
