where ever you are going to referance $HTTP_POST_VARS use
$GLOBALS[HTTP_POST_VARS] and then use that inside your function.

function myFunc()
{
    foreach($GLOBALS[HTTP_POST_VARS] AS $k => $i)
    {
        $GLOBALS[HTTP_POST_VARS][$k] = stripslashes($i);
        $GLOBALS[HTTP_POST_VARS][$k] = strip_tags($i);
    }
}

and after this function $GLOBALS[HTTP_POST_VARS] will look like you want it
to.
