I most certainly agree. I never program in such a way that I am passing in arbitrary table names though and so I've never needed to look up the method that would quote it for me. Thankyou for pointing out the correct method.

In all cases the name of the table could be validated before trying to use it in actual SQL - either by using "show tables" in MySQL or by "SELECT table_name FROM user_tables" in Oracle. Either way I would not be using the user supplied data in that portion of the SQL.

my @a=qw(random brilliant braindead); print $a[rand(@a)];

Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>

to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
