Default Useful snippets.

These are some of the function, classes and useful arrays I use most.

Code:
function refresh($strURL = NULL){
	$page = ($strURL == NULL)?$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']:$strURL;
	if(basename($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']) != $strURL){
		echo '<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;url='.$page.'">';
	}
}
function toString($str){
	echo '<br /><pre>';
	print_r($str);
	echo '</pre>';
}

function makeSafe($dangerous){
	$dangerous = trim($dangerous);
	$dangerous = htmlspecialchars($dangerous);
	return $dangerous;
}

function addQuote($string){
	return '"'.$string.'"';
}

function showErrors($arErrors){
	$dispErrors = '';
	if(is_array($arErrors)){
		if(count($arErrors) > 0){
			foreach($arErrors as $error){
				$dispErrors .= '<li>'.$error.'</li>';
			}
			
			return '<ul id="errors">'.$dispErrors.'</ul>';
		}else{
			return false;
		}
	
	}else{
		if($arErrors != ''){
			$dispErrors .= '<li>'.$arErrors.'</li>';
			return '<ul id="errors">'.$dispErrors.'</ul>';
		}else{
			return false;
		}
	}
}
