Afterwards I tried to do the same with smarty, but the result was the same. I found out, that this only happens inside quotes inside a html tag. This only happens with double quotes. Single quotes are not removed, but I need to use double quotes because my original intention was to use javascript inside onmouseover. I use the Debian PHP Package. (This also happend with a self compiled version of PHP 5.0.2) Reproduce code: --------------- <?php $var = 'This is a \\"test\\"'; eval(' ?><a title="<?php echo $var; ?>"><?php '); ?> Expected result: ---------------- <a title="This is a \"test\""> Actual result: -------------- <a title="This is a \"test\> ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=30603&edit=1
