[snip] You should probably use mysql_escape_string or mysql_real_escape_string instead of addslashes and stripslashes. IMHO addslashes and stripslashes are pretty much useless.

At the very least, mysql_(real_)escape_string should be always used for mysql code instead of addslashes as it *will* do the right thing. -- paperCrane <Justin Patrin>
