stripslashes — Un-quotes a quoted string

Опис

stripslashes(string $string): string

Un-quotes a quoted string.

stripslashes() can be used if you aren't inserting this data into a place (such as a database) that requires escaping. For example, if you're simply outputting data straight from an HTML form.

Параметри

string: The input string.

Значення, що повертаються

Returns a string with backslashes stripped off. (\' becomes ' and so on.) Double backslashes (\\) are made into a single backslash (\).

Приклади

Приклад #1 A stripslashes() example

<?php
$str = "Is your name O\'reilly?";

// Outputs: Is your name O'reilly?
echo stripslashes($str);
?>

Зауваження:
stripslashes() is not recursive. If you want to apply this function to a multi-dimensional array, you need to use a recursive function.

Приклад #2 Using stripslashes() on an array

<?php
function stripslashes_deep($value)
{
    $value = is_array($value) ?
                array_map('stripslashes_deep', $value) :
                stripslashes($value);

    return $value;
}

// Example
$array = array("f\\'oo", "b\\'ar", array("fo\\'o", "b\\'ar"));
$array = stripslashes_deep($array);

// Output
print_r($array);
?>

Поданий вище приклад виведе:

Array
(
    [0] => f'oo
    [1] => b'ar
    [2] => Array
        (
            [0] => fo'o
            [1] => b'ar
        )

)

Sometimes for some reason is happens that PHP or Javascript or some naughty insert a lot of  backslash. Ordinary function does not notice that. Therefore, it is necessary that the bit "inflate":

<?php
function removeslashes($string)
{
    $string=implode("",explode("\\",$string));
    return stripslashes(trim($string));
}

/* Example */

$text="My dog don\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'t like the postman!";
echo removeslashes($text);
?>

RESULT: My dog don't like the postman!

This flick has served me wery well, because I had this problem before.

Hi, 

Here are recursive addslashes / stripslashes functions.
given a string - it will simply add / strip slashes
given an array - it will recursively add / strip slashes from the array and all of it subarrays. 
if the value is not a string or array - it will remain unmodified!

<?php

function add_slashes_recursive( $variable )
{
    if ( is_string( $variable ) )
        return addslashes( $variable ) ;

    elseif ( is_array( $variable ) )
        foreach( $variable as $i => $value )
            $variable[ $i ] = add_slashes_recursive( $value ) ;

    return $variable ;
}

function strip_slashes_recursive( $variable )
{
    if ( is_string( $variable ) )
        return stripslashes( $variable ) ;
    if ( is_array( $variable ) )
        foreach( $variable as $i => $value )
            $variable[ $i ] = strip_slashes_recursive( $value ) ;
    
    return $variable ; 
}

?>

A replacement that should be safe on utf-8 strings.
<?php
  preg_replace(array('/\x5C(?!\x5C)/u', '/\x5C\x5C/u'), array('','\\'), $s);
?>

If you need to remove all slashes from a string, here's a quick hack:



<?php

function stripallslashes($string) {

    while(strchr($string,'\\')) {

        $string = stripslashes($string);

    }

}

?>



Hope it's usefull , O-Zone

in response to crab dot crab at gmail dot com:

$value need not be passed by reference. The 'stripped' value is returned. The passed value is not altered.

Might I warn readers that they should be vary careful with the use of stripslashes on Japanese text. The shift_jis character set includes a number of two-byte code charcters that contain the hex-value 0x5c (backslash) which will get stripped by this function thus garbling those characters.

What a nightmare!
