Sinisa,
1.
Thanks for the mail.
2.
I observed that mysql_escape_string()soes not work
either.If I want to store a file name with back
slashes,I feel mysql_escape_string() should introduce
the additional backslash required .But it does not do
so.It is just copying from source string to
destination string.
3.
Because of this I am unable to store the escape string
into the database.By the way can you send me the exact
syntax for mysql_escape_string() so that I can check
it up to further confirm that I am not missing out on
any thing.
4.
mysql_escape_string() does not complain but I feel it
is not doing what it is supposed to do.
Regards,
Ravi
