Hi,
Is there much I need to know about storing mixed PHP/HTML text in a mysql database table, and then using eval() to execute it?
All I managed to find so far is that I should store it in a blob.
Do I need to escape characters, or perform any other filtering/conversions before I store it in the database? Similarly, what steps would people recommend when pulling the data out, before executing it?
TIA
