Clean string.

[Independent]

function waffles2($loginstring) 
{
    $loginstring = mysql_escape_string($loginstring);
    $loginstring = stripslashes($loginstring);
    $loginstring = htmlentities($loginstring);
    $loginstring = htmlspecialchars($loginstring);
    $loginstring = strip_tags($loginstring);
 
    return $loginstring;
} 

Just to make sure, would that work?
as I added or die("Error"); and it displayed the error.

If anybody could, I'd be greatful..
If anyone could post a securer cleaner function.

this is good for cleaning sql:

if( ( function_exists( 'get_magic_quotes_gpc' ) && get_magic_quotes_gpc( ) ) || ( ini_get( 'magic_quotes_sybase' ) && ( strtolower( ini_get( 'magic_quotes_sybase' ) ) !== 'off' ) ) )
        {
            stripslashes( $string );
        }
        $string = mysql_real_escape_string( $string );
        return $string;

Should I nest it into the function?

No that's a function in itself.

Yeah, but can I do that if I wish..

because, I have waffles2(); all over the site in clean fucntions..

but I've nested it and it appears it's working, ty.

I owe you 2rep points.

Couldn't edit the post above..

How do I stop it from displaying the slash?

[Dentafrice]

#1 you don't need all that ****, and you need to put Dan's code into a function.

You remove slashes on display, stripslashes();
