Re: [PHP-DB] apostrophes everywhere

Re: [PHP-DB] apostrophes everywhere | [PHP-DB] Re: Sessions help needed !!!
Firstly, I believe I speak on behalf of the other users on this list 
when I tell you that I do NOT need a secondary copy of your email posted 
on this mailing list with a different subject, I am quite capable of 
reading the first one.


Finally, I would suggest looking into the htmlspecialchars($str) 
function or as the previous poster pointed out, check out the manuals in 
relation to string/HTML escaping routines.


Next, just as I look over that snippet I spot a little anamoly, or is it 
just me?

mysql_query("DELETE FROM `table` WHERE `id` ='3' ");

is placed AFTER you have set the previous record that used to hold 2 in 
its 'id' field to 3.

Therefore are you not deleting two records here? I would assume so.. You 
are deleting the oldest one, and also the second oldest.

I would recommend placing the deletetion statement BEFORE you change the 
2nd oldest record to the 3rd. :-)

Order of operations is critical here.


tata!
