Luckily.

Either make sure sure ALL your values are initialiased ($f = '' etc...),
or keep register_globals off (preferably both ofcourse), so your script
won't have to deal with variable values that have been set by a user on the
Evil Net, but only by youself, or a validated/checked request from the
user. That way you're reaonably sure what your sript does, instead of
intorducing unpredictable, and potentially harmfull, variables.
