that function exists in PHP since 4.3.0--as you would have known if
you had a look in the PHP manual. you can use mysql_escape_string()
instead of it. it would be nice if you showed you did your part of
solving your problem, such as: didn't just whine "it gives me parse
errors, what am I supposed to do", but looked at the code you'd
been given and fixed those typos yourself.
rule no. 1: don't expect others to do your homework.
