stripslashes

i got parse error when i try to use stripslashes:


<?
if (isset (stripslashes($text))){
mail("x@x.net", "",

"$text");
echo $text.'<br/> been mailed!';
}else{
print 'xxxx happens';
}
?>


how should i implement this function?

You haven't declared or set $text to anything! Essentialy, $text is nowhere to be found!

Just try


<?php
$text = stripslashes($_POST['text']);
if (isset ($text)){
mail("x@x.net", "", "$text");
echo $text.'<br/> been mailed!';
}else{
print 'xxxx happens';
}
?>

you can assume that $text is set somewhere else.

what you cant do however, is test for if stripslashes($text) is set, because even if $text isnt set, stripslashes($text) will still return an empty string (a set value)



$text = stripslashes($text);

if (isset ($text)){
mail("x@x.net", "", "$text");
echo $text.'<br/> been mailed!';
}else{
print 'xxxx happens';
}



hope this helps you out
