hi the mysql manual suggests that we use the mysql_escape_string() function when generating dynamic urls. is there any other situation when it is required? and could someone explain when/why this would be needed for urls...other than to make the browser understand that character (such as ' # etc. in the url).
and if magic_quotes_gpc is on, any and all escape characters are backslashed right? how does when check what the accepted mysql escape characters are? (like -- for a comment) thanks abs ________________________________________________________________________ Yahoo! Messenger - Communicate instantly..."Ping" your friends today!
