Anthony Ferrara has posted about the latest installation in his video tutorial series he's been producing on various programming topics. In this latest video he covers the use of prepared statements in your database interactions.

The fourth video in the Programming With Anthony series is live! In this video, we'll explore the basic principles of prepared statements, and why you should use them instead of using escaped input directly in queries.

You can watch this latest video over on YouTube. You can also check out the previous videos in the series while you're there covering paradigms, encryption and references.
