Output of serialize() is barely readable and definetely is not suited for manual editing.
It is quite simple to create var_export() clone that does not add junk to it's output. But then I would need to exec() the string to get a data structure back, which is bad security practice.
Is there any good way to store/retrieve data structures (multidimetional arrays) to/from database?
Huh?
Why would you _manually_ edit a serialized array??? One would think you would UNSERIALIZE (http://us4.php.net/unserialize) the serialized array *before* working with the data. But that's just me.
