Hi, I am having bother trying to perform a select, that has an apostrophe in the value I’m looking for. Below is the Perl code I’m using.
$SQLStatement = "SELECT ID FROM Albums WHERE Name = '".$DBHandle->quote($Name)."';"; $STLookUpHandle=$DBHandle->prepare($SQLStatement); $RVSelect=$STLookUpHandle->execute(); $SQLStatement contains the following: SELECT ID FROM Albums WHERE Name = ''Kill \'Em All''; And I receive this error: DBD::mysql::st execute failed: You have an error in your SQL syntax near 'Kill \'Em All''' at line 1 Any help would be appreciatred.
