What alternative methods, besides ini_get(), can be used to check the status of safe mode in PHP?
The safe mode feature in PHP has been deprecated since PHP 5.3 and removed in PHP 5.4. If you are using a version of PHP that still supports safe mode, you can check its status using the `ini_get()` function. However, since safe mode is no longer relevant, it is recommended to update to a newer version of PHP that does not have safe mode.
// Check for safe mode (deprecated)
if (ini_get('safe_mode')) {
echo 'Safe mode is enabled.';
} else {
echo 'Safe mode is disabled.';
}
