This seems too obvious to be a bug. Using php5.2.9 Al.......Your code works for me, unless I'm misunderstanding the problem. With the following: $value = ""e;test"e;"; I get: "e;test"e;<br /> &quote;test&quote;
I may not have been very clear. Feed it just "test" with the quotes. You should get back, "test" the same as you gave it. Instead, I get back "e;test"e;Like wise, if I give it just a single quote ["] I get back ["e;]
