In a web application I would like to use tsearch2 to search for by-user
entered key words. That is, the user provides the keywords in a space
separated list in some input text field. For that I use
to_tsquery('<user keywords>') but I would like to do this in a safe way
so that the user cannot misuse to_tsquery() by entering some harmful string.
That is, a user input like
    "cars ford fast"
should be translated to
    "to_tsquery('cars|ford|fast')"
in a safe way.

How can I do that?

(I use postgresql from PHP)
