    <para>
     As of PHP 5.4.11, the numbers +0 and -0 validate as both integers as well
     as floats (using <constant>FILTER_VALIDATE_FLOAT</constant> and
     <constant>FILTER_VALIDATE_INT</constant>). Before PHP 5.4.11 they only
     validated as floats (using <constant>FILTER_VALIDATE_FLOAT</constant>).
    </para>
    <para>
     When <parameter>default</parameter> is set to option, <parameter>default</parameter>'s value is used if value is not validated.

         Equivalent to calling <function>htmlspecialchars</function> with <constant>ENT_QUOTES</constant> set. Encoding quotes can
         be disabled by setting <constant>FILTER_FLAG_NO_ENCODE_QUOTES</constant>. Like <function>htmlspecialchars</function>, this
         filter is aware of the <link linkend="ini.default-charset">default_charset</link> and if a sequence of bytes is detected that
         makes up an invalid character in the current character set then the entire string is rejected resulting in a 0-length string.
         When using this filter as a default filter, see the warning below about setting the default flags to 0.

       When using one of these filters as a default filter either through your ini file
       or through your web server's configuration, the default flags is set to 
       <constant>FILTER_FLAG_NO_ENCODE_QUOTES</constant>.  You need to explicitly set
       filter.default_flags to 0 to have quotes encoded by default. Like this:
       <example>
