[RESOLVED] Question about removing single quotes from a string ?

[haynest]

Having a bit of trouble here. This small bit of data is my problem.

'**SEE BELOW/ADD'L LEGAL'

Look at that little single quote in the middle of the string, messin' up my database... Anywayz, i checked out the forums and the manual for a bit and found that most people are using the function addslashes(). Which is supposed to add backslashes before those single quotes so that I can enter this data into my database. The problem I am having is implementation. Being a newbie and all, I am not exactly sure how I should go about making my array into strings so that I can actually use the addslashes() function.

foreach($listingres as $record) // $listingres is the array I got from file() 
{ $record=trim($record); // Otherwise the newline character will still be on the end of the line 
  $fields = explode("\t", $record); // Do stuff with the $fields array.

you can probably just call addslashes on $record
like
$record = addslashes(trim($record));

Good call. I was tinkering with it and threw in one of these.

$record=addslashes($record);

Thanks drew
