Thanks for the suggestion but it's too ugly for me :-) I'll just stick with
using '. I don't forsee a problem.

IMHO
$query = "SELECT shoodID FROM shoots WHERE location=\"$location\"";
and even
$query = "SELECT shoodID FROM shoots WHERE location='$location'";
sometimes cause SQL Syntax Error,
because the variable $location may contain quote characters (')(")...
since i experienced the same thing i've been doing like this...
(the reason is just that i did with 2 byte japanese characters?)
--------------------------------------------------------
$query = sprintf(
'SELECT shootID FROM shoots WHERE location="%s"',
AddSlashes( $location )
);
--------------------------------------------------------
going well, but is this code too ugry?
