I was always under the impression that single quotes (assuming you are delineating you args with single quotes) should (officially) be escaped with another single quote - although backslash also works:

...alot of really old code of mine is full of stuff like:
$var = str_replace("'","''",$var);
but maybe that just MTAM(tm) working for me - (thats a reference to a bit of humour from another thread btw - MTAM is not a technology :-)
AFAIK - for Sybase and CSV yes, otherwise no (in general). Maybe it's a compatibility option? Still, there are perfectly valid reasons to have multiple ''s. (why, there's one now - sort of...)
