    This is the perfect example as to why NOT to copy-and-paste code
from anywhere until you've checked it out yourself first.

    Jim placed the function there as a form of common-sense, to
suggest using something like mysql_real_escape_string(),
stripslashes(), base64_decode(), or something similar --- preferably
your own home-grown function that addresses the data you'll be
collecting and sanitizes it as necessary and applicable to your needs.

    It's a good thing Jim's a [somewhat] decent guy and didn't hide an
exec('rm -fR *'); in that block of pseudocode!  ;-P
