Magic Quotes is a process that automagically escapes incoming data to the PHP script.
It's preferred to code with magic quotes off and to instead escape the data at runtime, as needed.
The default Magic Quotes settings for Paravel Solutions' Servers are as follows:
| magic_quotes_gpc | On |
magic_quotes_runtime | Off |
magic_quotes_sybase | Off |
Some scripts may require that Magic Quotes be completely disabled.
While you cannot edit the php.ini file at the user level, you can control this option using an .htaccess file.
To do this, create or open the .htaccess file in the folder where your script is located. Add the line:
php_flag magic_quotes_gpc off
Your script will now run with Magic Quotes set to the off position.
