It is telling me to think about the order which you call the functions.

Hi all you have to do is write it in the right place (which is the middle of the first two sentences)

I don't understand?

I know this may be a bit late but, if you have just the original two lines you simply but the code above into the middle of the two lines it should work.

$message = $_POST['message']; $message = escape_tags($message);insertInto Database($message) $insertIntoDatabase($message);

This is what it looks like.

The answer to sanitise the variable before it gets inserted into the database
should be:

$myFormData = escape_tags($myFormData);
insertIntoDatabase($myFormData)

Hope this helps!

This is the solution:

P.S. I have posted two screenshots because they are both correct but you only forgot to use the restart code (block) as you should drag it or place it next to the incorrect code (block).
