Special characters in SQL strings

Recommended Posts

Hi guys,

 

I am viewing a tutorial that is a little out of date, but which does address the issue of stripping special characters from strings prior to using them in an SQL update statement.

 

What I would like to know is:

 

1. What is the very latest mechanism available to ensure your strings will be sent to the database with no special character problems?

2. Is the solution specific to MySQL, or does it hold good for other SQL databases?

 

Many thanks in advance,

 

S
