How to stripslashes all the items of an array at once?

Question

I need to stripslashes all items of an array at once.

Any idea how can I do this?

Answer 1

foreach ($your_array as $key=>$value) {
$your_array[$key] = stripslashes($value);
}

---

or for many levels array use this :

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

    return $value;
}


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

print_r($array);

Answer 2

Any recursive function for array :

$result= Recursiver_of_Array($array, 'stripslashes');

code:

function Recursiver_of_Array($array,$function_name=false){ 
  //on first run, we define the desired function name to be executed on values
    if ($function_name) { $GLOBALS['current_func_name']= $function_name; } else {$function_name=$GLOBALS['current_func_name'];}
  //now, if it's array, then recurse, otherwise execute function
    return is_array($array) ? array_map('Recursiver_of_Array', $array) : $function_name($array); 
}

I found this class / function

 <?php
/**
 * Remove slashes from strings, arrays and objects
 * 
 * @param    mixed   input data
 * @return   mixed   cleaned input data
 */
function stripslashesFull($input)
{
    if (is_array($input)) {
        $input = array_map('stripslashesFull', $input);
    } elseif (is_object($input)) {
        $vars = get_object_vars($input);
        foreach ($vars as $k=>$v) {
            $input->{$k} = stripslashesFull($v);
        }
    } else {
        $input = stripslashes($input);
    }
    return $input;
}
?>

on this blog and it really helped me, and now i could pass variables, arrays and objects all through the same function...

Answer 4

You can use array_map:

$output = array_map('stripslashes', $array);

Answer 5

Parse array recursevely, with this solution you don't have to dublicate your array

function addslashes_extended(&$arr_r){
    if(is_array($arr_r))
    {
        foreach ($arr_r as &$val){
            is_array($val) ? addslashes_extended($val):$val=addslashes($val);
    }
        unset($val);
    }
    else
        $arr_r=addslashes($arr_r);
return $arr_r;
}

Answer 6

For uni-dimensional arrays, array_map will do:

$a = array_map('stripslashes', $a);

For multi-dimensional arrays you can do something like:

$a = json_decode(stripslashes(json_encode($a)), true);

This last one can be used to fix magic_quotes, see this comment.
