Please correct me if i'm really totally wrong. Even if considered harmful.

Best regards, Karl

    Are you asking me if SQL injection is considered harmful, or worth mentioning?

      No, i've just been thinking that i'm totally wrong...(self-doubt)?

        The SQLi point I raised is unrelated to the encoding issue. It's a common attack vector, people generally aren't aware of security issues when they start coding.
