I ran into a problem inserting records into a MySQL 5.0 database when there's a backslash as the final character of a string value. I never noticed this until I began working with some randomly generated character strings.
INSERT INTO users ( name, email, username, salt, password ) VALUES ( 'Cindy Smith', '[EMAIL PROTECTED]', 'cindysmith', 'd}\', 'c9a96937d248c0f192ff217a72935cdd' ) The workaround is to either enapsulate the value in a <cfqueryparam> tag or to escape the backslashes with \\. But I also realize that there are any number of places where this could crop up in existing code. Is this a bug in CF8's handling of these strings for MySQL? I would have thought it would escape them transparently. Is there a better workaround? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;192386516;25150098;k Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:305358 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
