Hi All,
Can anybody point me to a FAQ or similar that describes what all this
stuff is about please?. I'm interfacing with a MySQL database if that's
relavent. I've read a couple of books which refer to stripslahes and
'escaping' but nothing really explains what these terms are and why these
are used. Why is 'escaping' (whatever that is) used?. What the hell is a
magic quote?. How is it different from a non-magic one?.

Regards,
Dave
