You must have been flying somethere in the Andromeda galaxy all this time! magic_quotes, safe_mode and other stuff was announced depricated now for a few years, there is big buzz going on about it and these features are allready marked as depricated and throw warnings as of 5.3, some even as off 5.2. It's hard to miss articles, announce, conferences and numerous blog entries literally from any PHP developer who has a blog that these features are to be droped.
Please rewind from the past to the present day! :) People, just drop all this stuff once and for all and forget it. 2010/4/16 Johannes Schlüter <johan...@php.net> > Hi, > > on my previous mail I missed one thing: > > On Fri, 2010-04-09 at 00:48 +0200, Kalle Sommer Nielsen wrote: > > magic_quotes_* > > - Something we have long time been wanted to remove from PHP, I don't > > see a big reason to keep those in the next version, even if its going > > to be a 5.4, since we already removed things like > > zend.ze1_compatibility_mode.
