View as plain text  
I use mysql C API and for *escaping* the data i use the mysql_real_escape_string()....the
mysql native function.
Thanks,

the story for the trailing spaces only apply for varchar, so for blob it 
does not matter as long as you properly escape the data. (you don't need 
the ascii conversion, just the escaping)
