does `$myDb` has to be the connection variable? @Tufan Barış Yıldırım – mn6vdv23g Sep 21 '13 at 13:27

Basically saying:

This method does not support the call mysqli::escape_string

You will need to use the following method :

$DB = new mysqli();
$Escape = $DB->escape_string($String);

*mysqli::escape_string()* is a static call to the function escape_string(), something which mysqli doesn't support. You should use one of the options above.
