What probably makes the most sense is instead of relying on mysqli_real_escape_string, to create a simple unicode-capable regex that does the database escaping for you. then it is totally portable. That is what is sticking in the back of my mind. Even though I force utf8 connection on any of my database handles already. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
