Description:
------------
---
From manual page: http://www.php.net/mysqli.real-escape-string
---
real_escape_string escapes a NULL to "\0", but this is wrong!
It must be escaped to "\000" or conversions are wrong, if a digit follows.

Test script:
---------------
$a = "a\000" . "1b";
echo mysqli->real_escape_string($a);

RESULT:
a\01b => 'a' . '\01' . 'b'

MySQL does not have octal escape sequences.

mysql> SELECT "a\01b";
+------+
| a    |
+------+
| a 1b |
+------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

mysql> SELECT HEX("a\01b");
+--------------+
| HEX("a\01b") |
+--------------+
| 61003162     |
+--------------+
1 row in set (0.07 sec)

With this new knowledge (mysql don't support octal escapes) I found the bug in a class of my company.

Thanks for response.
