How can I replace the deprecated set magic quotes runtime in php

Question

I'm getting this message when I try to run a php script I have to use but did not write.

Deprecated: Function set_magic_quotes_runtime() is deprecated in /opt/lampp/htdocs/webEchange/SiteWeb_V5/inc/fpdf.php on line 1810

Here is line 1810:

set_magic_quotes_runtime(0);

If this is a deprecated function, what can I replace it with?

Hello @kartik,

I used FPDF v. 1.53 and didn't want to upgrade because of possible side effects. I used the following code according to Yacoby:

Line 1164:

if (version_compare(PHP_VERSION, '5.3.0', '<')) {
    $mqr=get_magic_quotes_runtime();
    set_magic_quotes_runtime(0);
}

Line 1203:

if (version_compare(PHP_VERSION, '5.3.0', '<')) {
    set_magic_quotes_runtime($mqr);
}

Hope it helps!!
Thank you!!
