This class can be used to check string to detect and remove bad words.

It provides several functions for evaluating the presence of words that can be considered offensive or rude and eventually remove those words. Currently it can:

- Check if a word is in the list of known bad words
- Get an array with a list of bad words
- Replace bad words in a string with another given string

<strong>Note:</strong> Please look at the source code for more details. Sorry for using bad words for examples. But as the purpose of demonstration I must use those. Otherwise it isn't possible to show a demo how it works. But I hope this class will help your site to maintain a clean environment.<br/><br/>
