for example-
How do i make this work?
INSERT INTO my_table VALUES('123', 'Jefferson's house')

------------------

If your values are in stored in variables then you can just say $sql = "insert into table values ('$field1','$field2');" and then do a mysql_db_query($db, $sql).

chyrag.

Um, no, you can't. The variables are not passed to mysql. Mysql has no idea what's in your php variables. php must pass the data in the variables to mysql and if there is a single quote it WILL send back an error. To prevent this you need to use addslashes().

$query="insert into $table values('addslashes($data)','addslashes($moredata)')";
