Yes, that's true. As a relative newcomer to PHP and the fact that MYSQL
is being deprecated, as long as mysqli is available on my servers;
wouldn't it be wise to go in the mysqlI direction?

I've no intention of making multiple queries currently but ... I
haven't used "i" yet either so I'm far from guru; I can only go by what
I read and the MYSQL reference to mysqli for multiple queries, should
the occasion arise. In fact, I've only ever experimented with MYSQL
itself; though I am using it on one of my own sites.

To me, it simply seems like the right way to go. Do you disagree
with that?

Well, I've seen a few exploits and how they're done, and I've used one
of them, and I did successfully trash my database. So, not so sure
that's 100% the case; perhaps it's just you're good at writing
sanitize/validate code?

Interesting observations/experiment; thanks for the info. Don't you
think it's actually due to your own code? Just curious, mostly.

Good post,
