In PHP, what's the diff between 'stripcslashes' and 'stripslashes'?

just.... don't know开发者_开发知识库 why two strip slash function.

stripcslashes() skips special character sets like "\n" and "\r", preserving any line breaks, return carriages, etc. that may be in the string.

stripslashes() simply removes any slashes it encounters without parsing anything beforehand.

stripcslashes does not simply skip the C-style escape sequences \a, \b, \f, \n, \r, \t and \v, but converts them to their actual meaning. So

stripcslashes('\n') == "\n"

while

stripslashes('\n') == "n"

Note that '\n' == "\\n".
