disabling magic quotes fails all the times with htaccess

[unleash]

http://php.net/manual/en/security.magicquotes.php[/quote]


in order to switch Magic Quotes to off i tried both ways - both failed.... and gave back this text

Internal Server Error
The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request. Please contact the server administrator, at the site.... and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.
More information about this error may be available in the server error log.

i tried it this way - by naming the file .htaccess

Code: Select all


<?php


php_flag magic_quotes_gpc off



?>

and also that way

Code: Select all

<?php
if (get_magic_quotes_gpc()) {
    $process = array(&$_GET, &$_POST, &$_COOKIE, &$_REQUEST);
    while (list($key, $val) = each($process)) {
        foreach ($val as $k => $v) {
            unset($process[$key][$k]);
            if (is_array($v)) {
                $process[$key][stripslashes($k)] = $v;
                $process[] = &$process[$key][stripslashes($k)];
            } else {
                $process[$key][stripslashes($k)] = stripslashes($v);
            }
        }
    }
    unset($process);
}
?>



what can i do now
hmm i can talk to the serveradmin - but is nt it possible to do it at the www-side - the webroot!?

love to hear from you

Hi unleach,

if you use an .htaccess file, don't use php style.

.htaccess is called befor php can be interpreted.
just try in your .htaccess

Code: Select all

php_flag magic_quotes_gpc off


or try in your php script

Code: Select all

<?php
       ini_set('magic_quotes_gpc','off');
?>


but I'm not sure that it works
