New Request Class - Dias - 02-24-2015
Hi.
I want to offer the use of a new class of global arrays.
I know that there is already a class Input, but not very useful. Input class does not clear the data and does not lead to the desired type.
I think this is a better solution than the input class:
PHP Code:
public post ([string $name], [string|array $filters], [mixed $default])
public get ([string $name], [string|array $filters], [mixed $default])
Example:
PHP Code:
$name = $this->request->post('name', array('trim', 'striptags'));
$checked = $this->request->post('checked', 'int', 0);
$id = $this->request->get('id', 'int');
As for XSS, I think the data must be escaped in a template, because there is a violation of data integrity, if it is done in Input Class.
If users will consider a class of useful I can show the class code.
Sorry for my english.

The form validation class already do that (filter, trim, etc)
As for data type, you can type cast the result : $id = (int)$this->input->get('id');
