Right now I still use mysql_escape_string and it seems to work fine, but it makes me nervous as everything else I use is mysqli and I know it is not 100% compatible (just haven't had anything break it yet) - but I hate having to have a connection handle open just to escape things.
If you need to escape something you're going to do a query aren't you? Or am I missing something here? -- Postgresql & php tutorials http://www.designmagick.com/
