Whats the best way to store a mysql query in mysql. I'm trying to store a mysql query in a debug log table if there is a problem with the query. I've tried using addslashes and a few other commands. I don't have a problem putting the data into the database but when I view it with sqlyog its f'ed up beyond belief. Is there another/better way to store this information?

Thanks,
Matt

What's f'ed up? I mean, I know what it means, but what does it look
like when you view it?

Don't use addslashes for entering content into the database, as it won't
guarantee the data is safe for a database. Instead, use
mysql_real_escape_string, which uses the character set of your current
connection to fix the string.

Thanks,
