note 20077 added to function.mysql-escape-string

Reversing mysql_escape_string Not hard, but not obvious when you are getting started with database programming If you _correctly_ escape a string before putting it into a MySQL field, then when you retrieve it, you have to do a string replace to UN_ESCAPE it before displaying it. If you retrieved a field named addresslistname from a db then do the following: $addresslistname = $row["addresslistname"]; $addresslistname = str_replace("\'", "'",$addresslistname); -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mysql-escape-string.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+20077 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+20077 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+20077
