If you're using DBD::Pg, just use ? placeholders without any quotes and let
it do the escaping for you:
$sth = $dbh->prepare("insert into customer (name) values (?)");
$sth->execute($name);
Makes the code a little more portable too. Hope this helps,
Wes

Subject: [GENERAL] escape single quote in INSERT command
Hi Group -
I have a perl application for a registration form. I'd like to put
escape characters in my insert command to accommodate for '
(i.e. O'Brien, O'Malley, etc). I've tired double quotes, single
quotes, back tick, forward ticks, curly bracket, round brackets - no
success.
Thanks, dave
