I'm not fully sure of what you want to know, but I personally find that 
magic quotes makes coding more difficult and annoying. I normally do the 
following:

1. Change settings to disable all these annoying "magic" features: magic 
quotes, register globals... This involves either .htaccess or a custom 
php.ini file, depending on the server API. (Many of these features 
cannot be changed in PHP code because they are already in affect when 
the script starts executing.)

2. Add a few verifications to my bootstrap file (the site's settings 
file) so I'm notified when settings are wrong.

3. Code normally.
