Hi
I have a webform with many free text fields and have a problem with
apostrophes and single quotes as this breaks the mysql query string.

I obviously need to escape these characters - magic_quotes_gpc sounds
ideal but is not an option as I don't have access to the php.ini file
and it is currently set to 0.

I could use either addslashes or mysql_real_espcape_string but do I
have to apply this to every field individually or is there a way to do
it to all in one go?
Any advice on the most suitable method and how to do it in one go
would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks
Redge
P.S please reply to this group rather than by email - thanks
