mySQL Error.

I'm not good at fixing php stuff. How do I fix this when i'm using XAMPP?

Deprecated: Function get_magic_quotes_gpc() is deprecated in C:\xampp\htdocs\sources\sql\mysql.php on line 80

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at C:\xampp\htdocs\sources\sql\mysql.php:80) in C:\xampp\htdocs\sources\admin\settings.php on line 1080

this is fixed in 1.9

open /sources/sql/mysql.php

find and remove:

    if (get_magic_quotes_gpc()) {
      $value = stripslashes($value);
    }

open /sources/sql/mysql.php

find:

    if (get_magic_quotes_gpc()) {
      $value = stripslashes($value);
    }

replace with:

$value = stripslashes($value);

I replaced that and I get this

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected 'if' (T_IF), expecting function (T_FUNCTION) or const (T_CONST) in C:\xampp\htdocs\sources\sql\mysql.php on line 83

Check your edit again, looks like you missed a } or ;

Never mind. I needed to remove one more "}"

That stripslashes isnt needed at all Mark, it was there before to counter the magic quotes, nothing else.
If you plain simply strip slashes now, the user input is altered ( one could just use double slash and the slash would make it through anyway ) - stripslashes is not a security function
Another reason you cant simply stripslashes is json, we work with json in 1.9 and users might also in custom plugins, by stripping slashes, you kill json stored data

My mistake, I have updated my original post and applied this change to 1.9.

Thanks Basti for catching that!
