Filtering & Escaping Cheat Sheet

After having two conversation on escaping data for MySQL insertion within 5 minutes of each other in ##php@freenode, I decided to created a cheat sheet on Filtering & Escaping in general.

I think what most people are not aware of is that not just outputting to the browser is output. So is querying a database, or calling one of the exec functions, or even using the mail function (not mentioned on the cheat sheet, perhaps for v2 :-)

Anyhow, I hope people find this useful!

@dshafik Don't hate mysql...hate your lack of understanding :) (and mine ;) )

@dshafik And having any disease increase a researchers chance of finding better treatment - let alone a "cure".

@dshafik But I also call: *shenanigans*! Cause one's own mental strengths won't help one survive anything.

@dshafik I think I get your point. Critical thinking will help one find the best available treatment and that will increase one's chances.

@uberChick mental strength can help you win... i.e. smarts can find a cure. :)
