RE: [PHP] how do you erase quotes from variable?

2001-01-26 Thread Dustin Butler 

 I have a variable(s) that hold the string:
 
 "name"
 
 and I'd like to kill the quotes so it contains:
 
 name
 
 I am aware of the strlen() function but can find the concant
 
 Little Help?
 
 Mike

If you *know* the variable is quoted you could also do:

$new = substr($variable, 1, -1);

I think this would be faster if you were doing a zillion of them as it
doesn't have to find the quotes.
