How to Use PHP Filters?
I am sure you have learnt about PHP Filters in your PHP course. PHP filters are very useful in dealing with data security and data management. Data security and data management is a major concern in all PHP applications. Data management refers to the handling of data and maintaining it for use and processing of the application in PHP. Data for an application in PHP programs can have two sources, one could be the internal organization which runs the application and the other could be the external data. The data from the internal organization is easy to handle as it is pre-organized in the required formats. The main challenge faced while working with the external data. The external data could include the data from the user input, cookies, web services, server variables and database query results.
