title: Is there an equivalent of PHP's mysql_real_escape_string() for Perl's DBI?
body: <p>Could some tell me if there is a function which works the same as PHP's <a href="http://php.net/manual/en/function.mysql-real-escape-string.php" rel="noreferrer"><code>mysql_real_escape_string()</code></a> for Perl from the <a href="http://search.cpan.org/perldoc/DBI" rel="noreferrer">DBI</a> module?</p>
