    <p>You need to do a couple of things: </p> <p>1- Make sure you test $tablename[ArtistImage] against a whitelist of tablenames before you inject it into your query.<br> If you don't you are still open to SQL-injection, because escaping only works for values, not for table or column names <em>(or other SQL syntax)</em> that you dynamically inject into your SQL-statements. </p> <pre><code>$tbl_name = ...... $allowed_tables = array('table1', 'table2'); if (in_array($tbl_name, $allowed_tables)) { $query = "...... } else { echo "tablename not allowed"; } </code></pre> <p>2 - Add a space between the tablename and <code>VALUES</code></p> <pre><code>$insertQuery= "INSERT INTO `$tbl_name` VALUES('".$image['name']."')"; </code></pre> <p>See: <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5811834/how-to-prevent-sql-injection-with-dynamic-tablenames">How to prevent SQL injection with dynamic tablenames?</a></p> <p>A much simpler answer is to <strong>never</strong> let the user specify where a file should be saved, or how it is named (on the filesystem).<br> Follow @Marc B's advice and only store the desciption in the database and use the PK (id) as the filename. </p> <pre><code>$description = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['description']); $query = "INSERT INTO images (description) VALUES ('$description')" $result = mysql_query($query); $id = mysql_insert_id; //get the id you just inserted. $filename = "../fixed_path/".$id.".jpg"; if (!move_uploaded_file($image['tmp_name'], $filename)) { echo "this should never happen" } </code></pre>

    2. COThis is completely unrelated to the question he's asking, and there is no indication that `$tbl_name` is coming from some external source, so there is absolutely no reason to run it through a white-list.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
