escape string with mysql_real_escape_string () function

$sql=mysql_query("insert into #tablename values('".mysql_real_escape_string ($_REQUEST['skill'])."')")or die(mysql_error());


for php 7 , use Mysqli extension

$sql=mysqli_query("insert into #tablename values('".mysqli_real_escape_string ($_REQUEST['skill'])."')")or die(mysqli_error());



still not advisable to use input parameters directly like this . you should use some wrapper function or wrapper class which filter/validate/do security check to input before it to save

ok it worked for me , Thanks and how can i validate before it save ? - ajamil

its Sql Injection .

you should escape the string before it to save in database .

its sql inejction you should filter input before it to save in database . its like cleaning fruit and veggies before pour in to stomach ,

use filter function to filter it , you have Validate or Sanitize or other filters
