RE: [PHP] Stripping single quotes
Darn, it still 'aint working. Ok, let's say $fldemail contains
o\'[EMAIL PROTECTED]
I then run these:

$fldemail == ereg_replace(',,$fldemail);
And I get o\'[EMAIL PROTECTED] ... damn.

Matt Stone

Hi all,
I am trying to validate some email addresses before they are entered into

The problem is, some thick or malicious people are entering single quotes

I need to strip out all these single quotes but a little ole' str_replace
doesn't seem to be working.
Here it is:
$fldemail == str_replace(',,$fldemail);
Nice and basic :)
Can anyone please enlighten me on this?
Thanks in advance,

RE: [PHP] Stripping single quotes
I'd have a look at those double equals signs ... I think they should be single:
$fldemail = stripslashes($fldemail);
$fldemail = ereg_replace(',,$fldemail);

maching
them. use '=' instead of '= ='

In article [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Elan) wrote: I have a string, "'abc'". How do I convert it to "abc" (i.e. how do I strip the embedded single quotes) with a minimum of overhead? If there's no chance that the string could also contain legit single-quotes (such as as an apoostrophe), you can simply use str_replace(). Otherwise, either str_replace() with strpos() -- to search/replace only on 2nd char and 2nd-to-last character -- or good ol' preg_replace() by itself. -- CC -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: [PHP] Stripping Single Quotes
use the following code
$vals=explode("'", "'abc'");
$your_value=$vals[0]; //I am little confused, if it is not working try
index1

(In case you'r wondering: I created the quoted string to store it in
MySQL, now I want to display the same string in a Webpage. Usually the
strings I display do not have embedded single quotes, and I add the
single quotes when I output the string printf("input type='text'
value='%s'", $value); That works well enough for strings that don't
already have embedded quotes. But when they do I want to get rid of them
quickly and easily, otherwise I get ...value = ''some value'' and
Netscape doesn't display the value embedded in two single quote
characters).
TIA,
Elan
