Security Questions

[Dan]

I've never really worried much about security, but I'm going to start doing it a lot more.

I don't think I will really have a problem because of how I am working the site, but if they really want to hack it, it's possible. (With no security, it would still be hard.)

Users are going to be submitting sites to www.css.la and I want to make sure no SQL injection is used.

It has an admin panel where submissions are sent, so if they mess with queries, only I would see it until I accept or decline it.

I've seen people say to stripslashes(mysql_real_escape_string($string)) the data and a bunch of other ways.

How do you think I should censor the data?

just a side note:-

but in all honesty it is still 1 of the best methods as long as it is not annoying for the customer.

In the beginning I only use 3-4 numbers in the image because as you said, you don't want to annoy customers
example:
http://www.parkingnoobie.com/add-link/?c=0

If that ever gets 'exploited' then I can make it more difficult, but it hasn't yet .. probably because my sites aren't popular
