Minds, meet prepared statements :)
PDO is the way to go :D
Not to refute the above advice one bit (not to mention oppose the arguments against escaping in general) ... but just curious - can anyone demo a hack that effectively injects past mysqli_real_escape_string(), while using utf-8 ? It may just be a matter of time (or already?) before mysqli_real_escape_string is *proven* ineffective (w/utf-8) ... but here I am just attempting to gather facts.
Thanks

Ah, but what if I use sqlite or postgres?
IMHO, the discussion needs to be a the best way to prevent SQL injection
across all possible DB types. Not just mysql.
