The latest edition of the Pro-PHP Podcast has been posted, with the return of Marcus Whitney as the host of the first ever "Ask Chris" show.

The first episode of Ask Chris (Shiflett) covers the question of proper input filtering and whether or not stripslashes() should be used at all??? Hope this answers your question "All Slashed Up in Denver"

As mentioned, they talk about one of the main concerns about accepting user input of any kind - filtering it to keep the "bed stuff" out. So, get on over and give it a listen! And be sure to submit comments of what you think of the new show!
