Hello,
sorry, but we can't provide QA for non-official versions. It is likely
that the audit version introduced this bug.
Please test php-4.2.0RC2 from www.php.net/~derick . If it still
inhibits this fault, please reopen this report.

I was doing something unnecessary with preg_replace to a
variable --
$var = preg_replace("[\(|\)]","\0",$var);
-- before using it in an INSERT query, like so:
$SQL = "INSERT into theTable (theField) VALUES
('".$var."')";
mysql_query($SQL,$conn);
and all I got was a blank entry for the field insert.
Basically, the preg was stripping out "()" parenthesis and
leaving me with the string inside the parenthesis. the
mysql_query must have seen the "\0" null terminator and
thrown away the entire string. When I changed the preg
function to:
$var = preg_replace("[\(|\)]","",$var);
everything worked the way it was supposed to.
I know there was no good reason for me to replace with a
null terminator but maybe this is a bug? when I printed
the variable out to debug I could see the string, minus the
parenthesis, as I intended. this is what left me confused
for quite some time. maybe this isn't a bug but it's
definitely only happening in the mysql_query function, not
PHP, so I thought I should report it.
