The mySQL manual says that embedded double quotes within a single quoted
expression (as in 'O"Hara') need no special treatment.  However, when I try
to update a data base field using such an expression, as in:

        UPDATE table set col1='O"Hara' 

the result I get is that everything to the right of the double quote is
deleted. In other words, the result of the update is  just the letter O in
this example.

I get the same result if I use the escape character as follows:

        UPDATE table set col1='O\"Hara'


Is this behavior expected??
