I do the following way to achieve portability:
For GET/POST/COOKIE variables:
1. check "magic_quotes_gpc" PHP setting - if enabled strip slashes from input
variables using stripslashes()
2. check input/anything
3. prior building SQL query escape stuff (mysql - mysql_real_escape_string(),
others use different escaping methods)
4. run query
For data that comes from SQL sources:
1. check magic_quotes_runtime PHP setting...
