Hi All,

Just sort of throwing this out there for ideas.. I've been mulling
over the idea of creating a method for global input sanitisation...
(not validation) ensuring that if the URL and Form variables contain
what looks like malicious input, the request is brought to a halt
before anything else executes.

The idea is that on any form submission:
- Referer is checked to avoid cross site scripting
- Variable values are checked for SQL and HTTP Header codes to avoid
injection and response splitting

I'm going to include a 'whitelist' for either pages or form fieldnames
exempt from this check, as well as for valid referers.

What else should I be checking? Am I missing some potential problems
with this idea? Will the execution time be too costly? ..

All thoughts welcome, cheers

B.
