Subject: Re: [nyphp-talk] escaping
In addition to all the other comments made, strip_tags() is helpful in this
situation.

As for excluding "www.", you need to do something like this:
$form_data = preg_match("www." "", $form_data);

Is this "escaping" that you guys have been talking about what you use to filter
acceptable data into textbox form?
If so, can you explain exactly what is being used (e.g., htmlentities) and how
to use it?
Actually I need to filter out nonpermitted characters since someone put a
Viagra advertisement into the php blog I created! (Caught it quite quickly and
deleted the entry from the database.) I'd like to exclude "www." from being
entered into a form.
