Prevent XSS attack since function get_request

Browse Source 
The $preventXSS parameter was added to the get_request function to avoid XSS attacks.
It was not set by default as $preventXSS=true, because it can affect fields such as passwords.

Using "htmlspecialchars" and "addslashes" functions of PHP.
