Hi Sinisa,
1.
Thanks for the detailed mails .I got to the problem I
am facing with '\' character.
2.
Actually I am expecting the function to add an
additional \ when a single '\' comes as a part of
string.For example:
I want to insert a File path like "\Program
Files\xy\xyz.geo" I n expecting the function
mysql_escape_string() to convert it into "\\Program
Files\\xy\\xyz.geo" which it is not doing precisely.
Am I right in my perspective?i.e mysql_escape_string
does not provide support for a single backslash
characher which comes as part of the string.
Even the function code which you have sent does not
say anything about it.
Shall I have to write a small code to replace '\' with
a '\\'?
Then :Is it a Bug?
3.
Once again thanks for your patience .I am putting down
the problem in detail as it provides scope for
improvement in next version.
Regards,
Ravi

Ravi
