I am using a function that does a very basic encryption (rotation based) of
data.
Data is a string which may contain a..z,A..Z,0..9,[],(),|,{}"', length
limited to 255 chars.
The problem I have is the following:
Let's say my $string is 'This is a string'
At a given moment encrypt ($string) yields '6noq4oq4"q6{o]3' as a result.
When I decrypt that I get my original string back. But if I send the
encrypted string in a POST var, this is what I get:
'6noq4oq4\"q6{o]3'; So the " gets escaped and decrypt produces undesired
results.
I don't want that. I want whatever I am putting in to come out verbatim in
the receiving script.
Which function(s) will help me do this ?
THANKS!
Pjotr
PS I am aware of exisiting PHP hash and encrypt functions. This is for
demonstration purposes only. 2 1391

What Ken said (stripslashes() ), but you should also be aware that the slash
got there in the first place because you probably have magic_quotes enabled
for your PHP installation. It is escaping the quotes for you.
- Virgil
.oO(Ken Robinson) Use the function "stripslash es", encrypt(stripsl ashes($_POST['var']))
Use get_magic_quote s_gpc() first to check if magic quotes are enabled
(they are by default, but you shouldn't rely on that).

The Python slice type has one method 'indices', and reportedly:
This method takes a single integer argument /length/ and
computes information about the extended slice that the slice

items. It returns a tuple of three integers; respectively
these are the /start/ and /stop/ indices and the /step/ or
stride length of the slice. Missing or out-of-bounds indices
are handled in a manner...

Hi,
My page has a table with many columns such that the right-side of the

I can get the page to fit entirely on the printer output if the browser

for now is replaced the '@' in all...

It causes a trouble, when the string is covered more than one-page when

In Accellerated C++, the author recommends that in a header file one should
not declare

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
