Re: [PHP] MySQL and apostrophes, interesting problem. 42082
Read the manual about magic_quotes_gpc and addslashes() I prefer to add slashes myself, that way I can verify input lengths but it has the risk that I might miss a field. The trouble with magic_quotes_gpc is that if you have to re-display a variable you have to stripslashes() first. - Original Message - From: "Nick Patsaros" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: [PHP] MySQL and apostrophes, interesting problem. 42082 > I'm working with a simple form which submits field > data to a MySQL database.

[PHP] MySQL and apostrophes, interesting problem. 42082
I'm working with a simple form which submits field
data to a MySQL database. This is for the purpose of
generating a dynamic news page for my site.
Interestingly enough I've found that any time I try to
submit data that contains an apostrophe "'" it gives
me an error and will not send the data (any of it) to
the database.
How can I change my database query, or escape out
apostrophes? I'm looking for the easiest fix out
there of course. Below is my current DB query. I
realize I'm using apostrophes for my variables... is
this acceptable syntax and/or is there a replacement?
$query = "INSERT into $table values ('0', '$year',
'$month', '$day', '$hour', '$minutes', '$seconds',
'$article_name', '$content', '$admin_name')";
