Two years and you haven't heard of:
addslashes? mysql_reaL_escape_string?
or even something as simple as
$comments = str_replace("'","''",$comments);to replace the one quote with two single quotes (don't forget to remove them on the display...)

Dear All,
I am using php and mysql the last two years, and I still cannot find the way
to update a field on mysql from php that containts the single quotes ( ` and
' )
Examples
Here is an example of my index.php file. I have to type something on "Comments" field ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- <? include("../configs/dates.inc"); include("../configs/config.inc");
echo "
<br>
<body bgcolor=#FFF8E1 text=#2003CF link=#2003CF vlink=#2003CF alink=#2003CF>
<center>
<form method=post action=add.php>
<font face=\"Comic Sans MS\">Comments<br><textarea rows=3 cols=40 name=mycomments tabind ex=22></textarea>
<input type=submit name=Submit value=\"Add Ticket\"> <input type=reset name=Reset value=\"Clear Form\"> "; mysql_close($myconn);
?> -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
In the html text area, I am typing the following text : Hello My name is Panos and I'm from Greece
The add.php file looks like this : ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- <?
include("../configs/dates.inc"); include("../configs/config.inc");
$myquery="INSERT INTO `$table` (`comments`) VALUES ('$mycomments')";
$myresult=mysql_db_query($db,$myquery);
mysql_close($myconn);
echo "done";
?> -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
ANd when i'm trying to see what was added on mysql, i have the following result :
Hello My name is Panos and I\
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The field on mysql is TEXT
Does anyone knows how can i resolve this problem?
Thanks
Panos
