Hi all,

Once again, thanks to anyone that can offer any help or advise on
this one!

I have found a bug in my servlet......

Description:
========================================================
I have a servlet developed that allows users to register for
a service, it all works great, except for one thing, if a person
enters a Surname of the O'Rourke, O'Reilly, type I get the following
message........

java.sql>SQLException:Syntax Error(Missing Operator) in expression
Query.

I know what causes the error, its the " ' " character that messes
up my InsertIntoDB query......

The code snippet below is what I am using, can anyone tell me how i
could modify it to allow surnames of this type to be accepted and not
generate an error.

Code Snippet:
================================================================

boolean success = insertIntoDB(
         "'" + email + "','" + firstName + "','" + lastName + "','" +
             telNo + "','" + address1 + "','" + address2 +
             "','" + county + "','" + country + "','" +
(String.valueOf(IdNo)) + "','" + password  + "'");
================================================================
End Code:

Ps I tried the archives, but the server is down.....

Thanks again to anyone that may be able to help.

Regards,
Jennifer
