Does PDO by default use html special chars? Or even better can I turn it on or off using php, I cannot find any documentation on whether this is possible or not?
Just to clarify, if using prepared statements I am nearly invincible to injection?
No; PDO is a database library, and hence doesn’t care about HTML. If you’re displaying data from your database in a web page, you still need to HTML-escape it for display.
As long as you don’t interpolate values directly into your queries, then yes — you are not vulnerable to SQL injection.
