Using ' in a MySQL command


NLCJ

Recommended Posts

Hello,

I've run into another (simple) problem.

Lets say I've got this:

$variable1 = "12";
$variable2 = "Testin' this system"; 

mysql_query("INSERT INTO tablename ('id', 'name') VALUES ('".$variable1."', '".$variable2."')");

 

That will look like this:

mysql_query("INSERT INTO tablename ('id', 'name') VALUES ('12', 'Testin' this system'");

 

So, how do I get this right into the database?

 

Regards,

mysql_real_escape_string should be used on ALL user inputted data in EVERY query.

I know, but I don't want that there comes a \'... I trust this source 100% so that will be fine...

 

Well then, there's only magick left for you...

A \ will not be saved to database, so I don't know why you might not like it.
