addslashes(), stripslashes(), strip_tags(), nl2br() , htmlspecialchars() etc. etc ... check PHP online documentation for more info on them..
But even without those functions, the data inserted thru form wouldn't crash MySQL .. The worst that can happen is if the data has quotes or wrong format etc. the data wouldn't be inserted into MySQL database..
