It&#8217;s a bit more scary making changes when you&#8217;re the &#8220;new guy&#8221; because there are a lot of &#8220;gotchas&#8221; you haven&#8217;t quite figured out in the new platform.

The point was to see which is the fastest way of quickly cleaning user input before passing to a SQL query to prevent against SQL injection. Obviously this would only work on database fields that are integers. To be [...]]]></description>
