RE: [PHP] addslashes/stripslashes

Don't know which database you're using but in Oracle you would use: Select * from tblContacts, tblCountries WHERE (tblContacts.CountryCode=tblCountries.CountryID) AND (Organization LIKE '%o''mallies%' ) Escape(\) is only used in PHP syntax, not SQL.

I used addslashes when entering the data, and then use addslashes with the search but nothing comes up: Select * from tblContacts, tblCountries WHERE (tblContacts.CountryCode=tblCountries.CountryID) AND (Organization LIKE '%o\'mallies%' ) I check in the database and o'mallies is indeed there as o\'mallies. And a search for just mallies works fine. What gives? Thanks Paul -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
