FILTER_SANITIZE_FULL_SPECIAL_CHARS "full_special_chars" FILTER_FLAG_NO_ENCODE_QUOTES, Equivalent to calling htmlspecialchars() with ENT_QUOTES set. Encoding quotes can be disabled by setting FILTER_FLAG_NO_ENCODE_QUOTES. Like htmlspecialchars(), this filter is aware of the default_charset 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.
FILTER_SANITIZE_STRING "string" FILTER_FLAG_NO_ENCODE_QUOTES, FILTER_FLAG_STRIP_LOW, FILTER_FLAG_STRIP_HIGH, FILTER_FLAG_STRIP_BACKTICK, FILTER_FLAG_ENCODE_LOW, FILTER_FLAG_ENCODE_HIGH, FILTER_FLAG_ENCODE_AMP Strip tags, optionally strip or encode special characters.
FILTER_SANITIZE_STRIPPED "stripped"   Alias of "string" filter.
FILTER_SANITIZE_URL "url"   Remove all characters except letters, digits and $-_.+!*'(),{}|\\^~[]`<>#%";/?:@&=.
FILTER_UNSAFE_RAW "unsafe_raw" FILTER_FLAG_STRIP_LOW, FILTER_FLAG_STRIP_HIGH, FILTER_FLAG_STRIP_BACKTICK, FILTER_FLAG_ENCODE_LOW, FILTER_FLAG_ENCODE_HIGH, FILTER_FLAG_ENCODE_AMP Do nothing, optionally strip or encode special characters. Dieser Filter hat den Alias FILTER_DEFAULT.

Warnung

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 FILTER_FLAG_NO_ENCODE_QUOTES. You need to explicitly set filter.default_flags to 0 to have quotes encoded by default. Like this:

Beispiel #1 Configuring the default filter to act like htmlspecialchars

filter.default = full_special_chars
filter.default_flags = 0
