Question

I have one problem with save $p on database.If I save $_POST[“content”] unmodified it works.
But if I modify with stripslashes it is not work.I do not understand the reason.

$_POST["content"] is text from function innerHTML
mysql_connect("XX","XX","XX");
mysql_select_db("XX");
$p=stripslashes($_POST["content"]);
mysql_query("UPDATE TEXTO SET VALOR='.$p.' WHERE id=2");

Answer 1

You wouldn’t want to strip slashes before updating a database, you’d actually want to do the opposite. I would recommend

$p=mysql_real_escape_string($_POST["content"]);
