Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-12-14 12:24:11] jdespatis at yahoo dot fr Hi, i have the same need In fact, I encode an array into a query string thanks to http_build_query() and i want to get my array back, so i use parse_str, however, this function protects slash if magic quotes is ON AND it's impossible in a script to set the magic quotes to off, so it's impossible to tell parse_str not to protect the slashes, i have to do a little loop after to strip slashes Should be nice to add an extra param to this function to say if yes or no slashes should be protected, instead of using the configuration of magic quotes (that can't be changed at runtime) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-02-06 20:54:30] php at koterov dot ru Description: ------------ parse_str() always quotes arguments when magic_quotes_gpc is active on startup (php.ini or .htaccess configured). But seems I cannot SWITCH OFF magic_quotes_gpc on runtime FOR parse_str(). (I understand that it is useless to try to switch off magic_quotes_gpc for purposes other than parse_str!). Seems it's a restriction of ini_set(), not parse_str() itself. Reproduce code: --------------- <?php # magic_quotes_gpc MUST be ON in .htaccess or php.ini! $qs = 'a="b"'; ini_set("magic_quotes_gpc", 0); parse_str($qs, $p); echo "<pre>".print_r($p, 1)."</pre>"; ?> Expected result: ---------------- Array ( [a] => "b" ) Actual result: -------------- Array ( [a] => \"b\" ) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=31862&edit=1
