Version 5.6 contains a super-set of features in version 5.5. Thus, version 5.6.13 will issue a deprecation warning when using mysql_real_escape_string(). You can download version 7 by following the instructions on the Development sources (git) link <http://php.net/git.php>. Were you to download PHP 7 source, and run your code with PHP 7, then you would get a Fatal error when running mysql_real_escape_string.
