Reading the file in array and putting array values as a message - whether still double quotes will not give problem ? It is no problem to have double quotes in a string. The only problem is getting the double quotes in there. If they come from a string literal - that is, a string that you have typed into your PHP code - then you may have to escape them. If the quotes come from a file or from a database or from user input or whatever, then you don't have to do anything; they appear in the string like any other character. miguel -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

RE: [PHP] Problem with the double quotes
You shouldn't need to addslashes() if you read from a file, only for string literals, like in your test. Are the file(s) you're reading in, just text files? If so, try doing your code with the file read commands and you should see you don't need to addslashes() -Original Message- From: Manisha [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, May 14, 2002 11:47 AM To: php-general Subject: [PHP] Problem with the double quotes I want to display the content of a file containing double quotes. It is giving me error. I experimented with one small string variable. If I add 'Slash' manually, then it is ok. But addslashes function is not working $str1 = addslashes(this is the msg ); This gives me error. But $str1 = addslashes(this is the \ \ msg ); This is ok. Manually adding slah to big file quiet impossible. Is there any good solution for this ? How to convert double quotes of file into \ ?

The file is HTML file. Actually I am sending email with message as this HTML file's content. I changed the header of email to accommodate HTML.
