# pg_escape_bytea

(PHP 4 >= 4.2.0, PHP 5)

pg_escape_bytea — Escape a string for insertion into a bytea field

### Descripción

string pg_escape_bytea ([ resource `$connection` ], string `$data` )

pg_escape_bytea() escapes string for bytea datatype. It returns escaped string.

> Note: When you SELECT a bytea type, PostgreSQL returns octal byte values prefixed with '\' (e.g. \032). Users are supposed to convert back to binary format manually.
> This function requires PostgreSQL 7.2 or later. With PostgreSQL 7.2.0 and 7.2.1, bytea values must be cast when you enable multi-byte support. i.e. INSERT INTO test_table (image) VALUES ('$image_escaped'::bytea); PostgreSQL 7.2.2 or later does not need a cast. The exception is when the client and backend character encoding does not match, and there may be multi-byte stream error. User must then cast to bytea to avoid this error.

### Lista de parámetros

  A string containing text or binary data to be inserted into a bytea column.

### Valores retornados
