Complements
The complementary function is drupal_get_normal_path().
Does drupal_get_path_alias filter input?
For example, if you used it like this:
$path = drupal_get_path_alias($_GET['q']);Is that safe? Or should the $_GET be wrapped in check_plain() or another security function?
Do not worry about the arguments, only worry about the output.
The $path variable in this case must be properly escaped either with check_plain() or check_url() depending on how it is being output.
Converting to clean seo friendly paths
Borrowed from this node:
Adding external files through drupal API: http://drupal.org/node/225868
Added to template.php:
<?php
/*
* Globe Runner SEO = GRS
* Use your own namespace if you'd like!
*
* @return String - Provides you with a clean url
*/
function grs_get_path() {
return strtolower( preg_replace( '/[^a-zA-Z0-9-]+/', '-', drupal_get_path_alias( $_GET['q'] ) ) );
}
?>
