Note Submitter: andy at aplweb dot co dot uk ---- A better approach than the solution by 'travis at travishegner dot com' is to make sure a string is safe to insert into a postgres database by using a simple replace statement once the serialize is done... <?php //this replace the null character with a safe representation $safeStr = str_replace("\0", '&#x0;', serialize($obj)); $newObj = unserialize($safeStr); ?> This means that no additional escaping is needed and yet the object maintains itself.
