I enabled global XSS filtering in my config file
Code:
./system/application/config/config.phpCode:
$config['global_xss_filtering'] = TRUE;This means I never have to add xss_clean in my validation rules, is that right?

Great thanks. I'm doing so much with forms that it just seemed to make sense to enable it globally.
