The reason I ask is, I'm having a problem processing rows in a table that
contain single quotes (specifically, the PHP code I wrote that allows the
user to duplicate a row doesn't work if the a field in the row has a single
quote in it).
Would it be better for me to strip out the single quotes before the rows are
written, replacing them with another special [harmless] character, and just
dynamically swapping that character out for the orginal when the row is
displayed? Any thoughts? I just started doing this PHP/MySQL thing a
couple weeks ago, and I realize I have a lot to learn. Any suggestions
would be much appreciated.
Oh, and by the way, here is the PHP code for duplicating rows that fails to
execute when a field in the row it's processing contains a single quote.
=====================================
// DUPLICATE
if ($action == "dup") {
$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM $table WHERE id=$id",$db);
$myrow = mysql_fetch_array($result);
$comma = "";
for ($i = $priv; $i < $columns; $i++) {
$fld = mysql_field_name($fields, $i);
$set .= $comma."$fld='".$myrow[$i]."'";
$comma = ", ";
}
// run SQL against the DB
$sql = "INSERT $table SET $set";
$result = mysql_query($sql);
$affected = $id;
echo "<td width=10><img border=0 src=../../common/spacer.gif width=10
height=1></td><td align=center valign=middle bgcolor=#eeeeee><span
class=adminnormalgrey>Record duplicated</span></td>";
}
=====================================
Thanks.
