I found that after the fact, but my question
if you don't find anything from the php manual or from the php lists then

I'm really tired of trying to figure out the PHP manual and need something
that explains things in plain straight forward English. Like

That is a really, really, really poor example. Tha name says it all. It
gets the magic quotes setting for gpc(get, post, cookie). You can figure

Try out Programming PHP by Rasmus Lerdorf from O'Reilly. I got it and
learned everything from it. Once you've read the book once or twice, you
can just use the PHP Manual...

Not sure if you've looked at it already or not, but www.webmonkey.com has
great web programming info. I followed a couple php tutorials from there
was up running... then again I've done alot of programming prior to PHP so
maybe I'm just warped.
