ok i figure out how to make a call to db:

$mypage_id = $wpdb->get_var("SELECT ID FROM $wpdb->posts WHERE post_name = '$get_gallery1'");

everything is working now!

You may want to look into the parameter escaping functions built into WordPress.

I don't know where you're getting the value for $get_gallery1, but there's always the danger that it could contain a SQL injection that could give somebody unauthorized access to your database. Escaping it eliminates that threat.

thanks a lot for your reply itsananderson,

i have to take a look, i'm a newbie so i have to take a closer look.
the value $get_gallery1 cames from the theme options page to find a page and filter the attachments,
i have make it work but i have to see this about sql injections.

also my problem now is that the html content from the text areas comes with some slashes (//) and i have echoed like this,
<?php if ( get_settings( $value['id'] ) != "") { echo stripslashes(get_settings( $value['id'] )); } else { echo stripslashes($value['std']); } ?>

i try to find a solution for this now also,

thanks a lot for the time you spend to help me,
all the best!!!
