    Also notice that filter functions are using only the original variable values passed to the script even if you change the value in super global variable ($_GET, $_POST, ...) later in the script.

    <?php
    echo filter_input(INPUT_GET, 'var'); // print 'something'
    echo $_GET['var']; // print 'something'
    $_GET['var'] = 'changed';
    echo     filter_input(INPUT_GET, 'var'); // print 'something'
    echo $_GET['var']; // print 'changed'
    ?>

    In fact, external data are duplicated in SAPI before the script is processed and filter functions don't use super globals anymore (as explained in Filter tutorial bellow, section 'How does it work?').

    I recommend you to use the FILTER_REQUIRE_SCALAR (or FILTER_REQUIRE_ARRAY) flags, since you can use array-brackets both to access string offsets and array-element -- however, not only this can lead to unexpected behaviour. Look at this example:

    <?php
    $image     = basename(filter_input(INPUT_GET, 'src', FILTER_UNSAFE_RAW, FILTER_FLAG_STRIP_LOW));
    // further checks
    ?>

    /script.php?src[0]=foobar will cause a warning. :-(
    Hence my recommendation:

    <?php
    $image     = basename(filter_input(INPUT_GET, 'src', FILTER_UNSAFE_RAW, FILTER_REQUIRE_SCALAR | FILTER_FLAG_STRIP_LOW));
    // further checks
    ?>

    Just to note that "server and env support may not work in all sapi, for filter 0.11.0 or php 5.2.0" as mentioned in Filter tutorial bellow.

    The workaround is obvious:
    Instead of
    <?php
    $var     = filter_input(INPUT_SERVER, 'SERVER_NAME', FILTER_DEFAULT);
    ?>
    use
    <?php
    $var     = filter_var(isset($_SERVER['SERVER_NAME']) ? $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] : NULL, FILTER_DEFAULT);
    ?>

    There is an undocumented filter flag for FILTER_VALIDATE_BOOLEAN. The documentation implies that it will return NULL if the value doesn't match the allowed true/false values. However this doesn't happen unless you give it the FILTER_NULL_ON_FAILURE flag like this:

    <?php
    $value     = 'car';
    $result = filter_var($value, FILTER_VALIDATE_BOOLEAN, FILTER_NULL_ON_FAILURE);
    ?>

    In the above $result will equal NULL. Without the extra flag it would equal FALSE, which isn't usually a desired result for this specific filter.
