Re: [PHP] need apostrophe solution

[Doug Parker]

So you're saying that I have to turn on magic_quotes_gpc in php.ini in order for it to work? the ini_set won't work?

Magic_quotes has already done (or not done) its job by the time your script runs.

OK - thanks. I saw that the magic_quotes_gpc is turned off by default, so I did a ini_set(magic_quotes_gpc, 1) to turn it on temporarily. I ran a get_magic_quotes_gpc() and saw that the ini_set did work, but for some reason the query still won't accept the quotes. What am i doing wrong?

thanks again, doug

Read about the magic_quotes setting in your php.ini.
