Yeah, that's pretty much it, except putting it in PHP
means that I'd need to include that function in every
script (or link it in with file prepending) and
distribute it, and also other people would need to use
it if they want the same functionality.
I put together a simple test by copying the addslashes
function and simply adding an if
(PG(magic_quotes_runtime)) around it (not the ideal
solution, I know) and it seems to be a little more than
twice as fast to put the code into PHP.
So, it's faster, easier to use, and more portable, plus
a proper implementation would just check the magic
quotes setting then do a function passthrough, and so
wouldn't add much to the code.
What do you think?

Here it is:
<?
function smart_addslashes($str) {
if (!get_magic_quotes_gpc()) {
return addslashes($str);
}
return $str;
}
?>
Is that what you want?

Description:
------------
Would it be possible to write a function, named something like
smart_addslashes(), that only adds slashes to a string if
magic_quotes_gpc is disabled?
Yes, this is only three lines of userland code:
if (!get_magic_quotes_gpc()) {
$input_string = addslashes($input_string);
}
But adding slashes to strings is a common task, and checking whether
the string has already been auto-slashed is crucial for portability
reasons - trimming three lines down to one would help ease the job a
little.
Thanks!
