Hello All,
I have declared one of my fields in the database as
PropertyName varchar(100);
Now the problem is that when I try to insert the text having an apostrophe using my html form it gives me an error.
Can you please help me with the issue as I am having loads of trouble due to this?
Many thanks.
Best regards,
Adi.

Use mysql_real_escap_string() to insert such data if you are using PHP.
Hi Adi,
Use mysql_real_escap_string() to insert such data if you are using PHP.
Thats because, while inserting, you insert this way. insert into table (col1) values ('value'); But since your value already has a ', its considered as the end of value, throwing an error. If you are using php, you can escape ' or " by using mysql_real_escape_string or addslashes.
