I am writing some examples. Please tell me if these are the examples of Canonicalization. 1. When an web application gets parameters from a GET request or POST request, and if that parameter is going to be used as a part of an SQL query, then the programmer must take care to convert the single-quote (') to two single-quotes('') for Oracle Database in order to prevent SQL injection. Is this canonicalization? 2. Take a guestbook of a site. The feedback given is going to appear back in the web-page. Here we need to take care that things like "<font>" should be converted to ">font<" before it appears on the page. Is this a case of canonicalization? ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This List Sponsored by: SPI Dynamics ALERT: "How A Hacker Launches A Web Application Attack!"
