PEAR db query with quotes, is this safe?

[mgob]

So, I have a application that reads from a DB and needs a field to start with a quote (not escaped) it literally has to have: "values are here" in the field.

 

I am using MDB2 / PEAR for DBI

 

magic_quotes auto adds slashes to the submitted info from the webapp so my question is;

Is the following safe to do to keep just the quotes in the DB without the slashes?

 

$db->quote(stripslashes($content), 'text')

 

this inserts properly with no slashes, my only concern is, is this susceptible to injection attacks or does the MDB2 quote prevent that properly?

 

Thanks!!
