Strip Tags & Protect Against Injection Attacks
Whilst this is not a perfect way to protect against attacks, it is a step.
function clean_input($input) {
// note, needs a MySQL connection
$clean = strip_tags($input);
$cleaner = mysql_real_escape_string($clean);
return $cleaner;
}
Best used wrapped around a string. e.g. clean_input($string);
