odbc_execute
Description
bool odbc_execute ( resource result_id [, array parameters_array] )
Executes a statement prepared with
odbc_prepare().Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure. The array
parameters_array only needs to be given if
you really have parameters in your statement.
Parameters in parameter_array will be
substituted for placeholders in the prepared statement in order.
Elements of this array will be converted to strings by calling this
function.
Any parameters in parameter_array which
start and end with single quotes will be taken as the name of a
file to read and send to the database server as the data for the
appropriate placeholder.
Note: As of PHP 4.1.1, this file reading functionality has the following restrictions:
File reading is not subject to any safe mode or open-basedir restrictions. This is fixed in PHP 4.2.0.
Remote files are not supported.
If you wish to store a string which actually begins and ends with single quotes, you must add a space or other non-single-quote character to the beginning or end of the parameter, which will prevent the parameter from being taken as a file name. If this is not an option, then you must use another mechanism to store the string, such as executing the query directly with odbc_exec()).
