Yeah, I've tested that in the application itself and it worked
correctly. I am trying to discover a way to use bind variables in PHP
without using the prepare function (to block sql injection), or if I
must use the prepare function, then force it to replan each time
somehow. That's part of where I'm stuck (and I'm no php guy).
