The following function is from Larry Ullman's PHP and mySQL on page 217 - script 6.8 - in which there is a connection to a mySQL database using PHP. My question is that I'm not sure of the global variable $dbc.
Hello Anthony, The mysql_real_escape_string() requires a connection to the database. The connection identifier is defined in another script so it's brought in using the global statement. Hope that helps, Larry
