Security is funny... you don't need it until you REALLY wish you did. I agree with you buckaduck but at the same time I have a need to whip the code out quickly. I also have the need to figure out why that code doesn't work... just because if for no other reason.

What my plan was and still is, is to get my code taint happy, and on the server I'm running it on. And then while I have time and the permissions to debug things on my own server make my code secure by properly handling all tainted data on a variable by variable basis.
