-     In the interests of writing portable code (code that works
-     in any environment), or, if you do not have access to change
-     php.ini, you may wish to disable the effects of magic quotes
-     on a per-script basis. This can be done in two ways, with a
-     directive in a &htaccess; file (php_value magic_quotes_gpc 0),
-     or by adding the below code to the top of your scripts.

-     Magic-quotes was added to reduce code written by beginners from being dangerous.
-     If you disable magic quotes, you must be very careful to protect yourself from
-     SQL injection attacks.
