Hi,

I am not sure whether this relates to this list or the (not working) php
list.

For simplicity:  I have a form that displays data from a table.  I will
take just one field that displays a name
<input type="text" name="name" value="<? echo $row[name];?>">

This allow a user to update the changes when the submit button is pressed.

On the next php file I do the following:

$tname =urldecode($name);
$tname1 = stripslashes($tname1);
$updtStmt = "update vusers set orgname='$tname1' where id=$tid";

This works fine, but suppose in by table I have a name "Adrian D'Costa"

This starts all the problems.  I copy the sql statement from the php file
and try:

update vusers set name='Adrian D'Costa' where id=3;
    '>                

I get the '> prompt that is waiting for me the close the '.  If I try the
same statement in mysql command line:

 update vusers set name="Adrian D'Costa" where id=3; Query OK, 0 rows
affected (0.01 sec)
Rows matched: 1  Changed: 0  Warnings: 0 

It works.  How do I do the same in php?  

TIA

Adrian
