[PHP] addslashes From: Joseph Blythe (joe.blythe <email protected>)

Hey,

Now that I can't use the htmlspecialchars() etc.. I am forced to use
addslashes() until I upgrade, and I want to wait until php 4.03 is
officially out.

My problem is that when I use:

$Name = "O'Connell";

$Name = addslashes($Name);

Then try and do a mysql_insert it spits the dummy as the ' has not been
escaped.

Does anyone know why this isn't working, I have used this before with no
problem?

I really don't wnat to do an ereg_replace on the insert, and again for
viewing.

Also magic_quotes_runtime is on, so I shouldn't need to do this at all
should I hmmm...

I may be forced to upgrade yet :-)

Regards,

Joseph
