You could use addslashes():
http://us3.php.net/manual/en/function.addslashes.php
Or, the code you mentioned below, could be rewritten like:
str_replace("\"","\\"",$code);
or
str_replace('"','\"',$code);
And if you're doing it for a MySQL query call, then you want to use
mysql-real-escape-string() instead of all that mess above:
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mysql-real-escape-string.php
What's happening with the example you gave is that you're having a conflict
with using the same type of string encloser (what's the proper word for single
and double quotes in this case? hah).
""" = "" with a dangling ". Error.
"\"" = a string containing just a double quote.
Everything inside "" is interpreted.
Everything inside '' is taken literally.
'"' = a string containing a double quote
''' = '' with a dangling ' on the end
'\'' = a string containing ' (I think.. I think this is the only exception to
no-interpretation-within-single-quotes)
Some more information on single and double quotes here:
http://us3.php.net/manual/en/language.types.string.php#language.types.string.syntax.single
-TG
= = = Original message = = =
If I use add slashes, it strips everything, I just want to replace all the
double quotes with slash double quote but this, of course, throws errors:
str_replace(""","\"",$code);
Thanks!
