put clob into oracle db from php

hi folks

i have following problem: i try to insert character data into a clob column in a oracle database. the character data contains line feeds, carriage returns and other characters which normally have a function in query strings.

i tried to insert the data using a normal query string. however, i always got the message, that the data contains illegal characters. is there a way i can put my 'illegal characters' into the db anyway?

i forgot to mention that i use php4 and odbc to access the db. and so far i did not find a possiblity to convert the string to unicode.

all replies are highly appreciated!

many thanks in advance.

regards,
