how to deal with a ' in a string

[doron]

For the poll hack, I have this pretty big problem:

entering a ' in the question or options cause a mysql error, as it things the insert command in done, as ' are used to denote strings.

How is this handled in vB, can't seem to find the code for this.

thanks

You'll have to backslash it: \', this can easily be done with the php-function addslashes, eg:

$query = addslashes($query);
