Error in MySQL/PHP real_escape_string UPDATE function

   $query = sprintf("UPDATE populationgender SET male='%s', female = '%s' WHERE popgenderid='4'",
             mysql_real_escape_string($male),
             mysql_real_escape_string($female));

You have used escape in javascript as well as php. Try using escape in javascript and unescape in php.

$myvar = urldecode($_GET["male"]);

this will work
