Go to a random hosting site and look at there configuration - magic quotes will be enabled. Look at some (not all) distributor packages - magic quotes will be on. Many of them won't see it as it's "hidden" in an error log which barely anybody read. Yes you do. You also read this list. But that's a minority of our users. Most don't follow the development closely. Most don't read blogs. Most don't know about php.ini. Most don't know about security. The people we interact with are just the tip of the iceberg. Most PHP users are hidden on the internet. I would love to get rid of this "feature" but I fear that many users won't notice and i don't know how to tell them. johannes -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
