Antonio Conte 426 Posted June 8, 2011 Report Share Posted June 8, 2011 Jibaba: Use mysql_real_escape_string() instead of mysql_real_string() The function needs two parameters: One is your database connection. The other is the string you want to clean. Example: <?php $wash-me = "I might have dangerous data inside me!"; $clean = mysql_real_escape_string($wash-me, $database-connection); ?> Now you can use $clean to put data safe into a database. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
