database contains text fields which can be in any language and contain
any text and punctuation
1. I am getting params back via a web form to create new records. What
do I do to validate input (apart from length check)?
2. I want to take a param and do a "like(%$param%)" search returning
matching records. How do I protect this?
thanks! I really ought to know this by now but for some reason it is
never quite clear to me.
