Hi all, I want to insert some text into my database, but I'm worried about bad data - metacharacters etc.
So I need to filter the input and remove bad characters. Which characters should I remove? What is bad for mysql? does anyone know a good subroutine (or webpage telling me all about it) for reference. I did have a good(ish) php way of doing this, but need perl this time. Thanks anyone kind enough to help Jules --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
