I'm going nuts trying to work out how to handle errors from data statement with single quotes. PHP 4.0.6 appears to be mangling something somewhere. All statements work with the Openlink odbctest program Any help appreciated
<? $conn = odbc_connect("$dsn","","","$cursor"); $sql="SELECT ID,Category,description FROM card_type WHERE description='IMPEYS'"; echo "<BR><b>SQL:</b> $sql<BR>"; $results = odbc_do($conn,$sql); if ($results) { while (odbc_fetch_into($results,$row)) { echo $row[0]."
