I have a string I'm returning from a database. Some entries have # signs
in the names ie (COMPANY #42, COMPANY #43...). When I display results
all I have is COMPANY. Everything after the # is dropped off. I tried:
If ($cust) {
$cust2=ereg_replace('#','no',$cust);
//tried
Why don't you just try:
$cust2 = str_replace('#','#35;',$cust);
That should replace all instances of # with it's html entity equivalent. If
that doesn¹t work then there is something else wrong with your script and
we'll need to see it all! :)

Have also tried other expressions where I escape characters. They won't
work.

Im trying to move some binary strings from mysql to postgresql,
and the binary strings has escape chars '\' in them.
I was told to double escape them like so - '\\\'
Here is what Im trying -
$data = '\0P Z\0Îê˜Úµ'; // This is a representation from an mysql dump
$data2 = str_replace('/\',
Just escape the \ with a single escape character. eg. your string
'\0P Z\0Îê˜Úµ' would end up as '\\0P Z\\0Îê˜Úµ' - each \ simply
escapes the backslash following it. If you add two backslashes, you end
up with one too many which is what the error is referring to.
..micahel..
On Thu,
One of the guys over on the php-db list told me that to store the binary
string correctly in postrgresql, that I would
have to double quote whats already there.
So in essence, by the time it hits the database, it has to be -
\\\0P Z\\\0Îê˜Úµ
Any suggestions to modify the string like this...
I'm stumbling over how to allow people to put single or double quotes
in a form text field.
I am passing the form to itself ($PHP_SELF) and on the second time
through previewing what the form data will look like and also
re-creating the form with the data already filled in.
Here's an example

Same for the double quotes.

Hi -- I'm trying to use a string of XML data which includes the use of
the ?xml ? tags. I've noticed that my editor (BBEdit) shows that \?
will escape the tag so that PHP does not treat it as a true close the
PHP code tag, but was hoping that someone here could give me an
official ruling.
Well, this is a fairly simple problem. I'm having problems with escaping a
string, and then ending the string right after the escape! For example,
echo Then Johnathan said, \That's exactly what I said!\;
I get a parse error on the line where the string is. Very simple problem, I

You're concatenating echo $PHP_SELF rather than just $PHP_SELF, which
isn't necessarily helping. But just between me and you, life would be a
lot easier if

prprietary db that doesn't understand XML.
I need to strip the XML tags out of the file.
However, when I use this line:

The ? in the string ends my php block.

Any idea why when I print the value of $text, I get a backslash in front of
the result?
$text=preg_replace(/\/, quot;, $text);
$text=preg_replace(/\/, A, $text);
$text=str_replace(\, A, $text);
Contrary:
$text=preg_replace(//, amp;, $text);
works quite well.

How do you escape double quotes? I have the following which is
supposed to make any " in a string into \" but it doesn't seem to
work. What's wrong with it?
$tmp_string = str_replace ("\"", "\\\"", $tmp_string);
