Every pro has this feature (magic_quotes_gpc) turned off. If you
understand SQL Injection vulnerabilities, and properly bind things
into
your queries, I would recommend disabling it.

ok - new to using pdo functions, but I thought I had a handle on it.
I'm writing out to my page an input tag with the following value
in it:
49'ers
I can confirm it by using my browser's "view source" to see that is
exactly how it exists in the page.
When I hit a submit button and my script retrieves the 'post'
vars my
debugging steps are showing that the var $_POST['team'] contains the
above value with a backslash (\) already inserted. This is
causing me
a problem when I then try to use pdo->quote to safely encode it for
updating my sql database.
My question is - why does the POST var show the \ char before I
execute the 'quote' function?
You're right! But I must not understand something.
My root folder has a php.ini file with the magic quotes set off.
Doesn't
that carry on down to folders beneath it?
I would check phpinfo() to see if it is being overridden.

Create an info.php file containing ...
<?php
phpinfo();
Save that in the directory containing PHP and one other directory.
Load them via your browser. See the settings for the magic_xxxx and
see where the php.ini configuration file is being loaded.
It may be that your ini file is completely ignored!
Matt & Rich,
I have a small php.ini in my domain's 'php' folder as well as in my
webroot folder. I was under the impression that the overrides would be
applied to all folders below my webroot, but apparently it is not
happening.
How do 'pros' replicate their .ini settings thru all of the
application folder? Not thru settings within the scripts I hope - I
thought I read that the was not a very efficient way to do it and that
a php.ini file was the best since it would be merged with the master
one installed by my hoster.
Jim,
Personally I rarely have the need to override the php.ini settings for a
particular host on a server. (Granted I never work in shared servers)
Assuming you are using Apache and the standard module configuration, you
can use .htaccess files to override many settings from php.ini
Official reference pages:
http://php.net/manual/en/configuration.changes.php (you might want to
read through the comments here, too)
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/howto/htaccess.html
Example and some discussion here as well:
http://davidwalsh.name/php-values-htaccess
If you are using another web server or running PHP as FastCGI you may
need to consider other options (changing the setting globally or doing a
require_once() of your config changes?, or see the FastCGI example here:
http://www.askapache.com/php/php-htaccess-tips-tricks.html)
