Re: Query with PHP variables not returning correct result.

I was assuming that real_escape_string() got rid of all unnecessary characters from $_GET, it didn't. When I echoed $Email after apply real_escape_string, I got
\'.email_address.\' when I was expecting just email_address Peter told me to turn magic_quotes off, but this feature has been DEPRECATED as of PHP 5.3.0 and REMOVED as of PHP 5.4.0., I'm using 5.5.12 in WAMP After reading up on str_replace I added $Email = str_replace(".\'", "", $Email); $Email = str_replace("\'.", '', $Email); Query now works. If anyone has a cleaner solution please advise. Thanks.
