Note Submitter: lehongviet at gmail dot com ---- I got problem echoing text that contains double-quotes into a text field. As it confuses value option. I use this function below to match and replace each pair of them by smart quotes. The last one will be replaced by a hyphen(-). It works for me. <?php function smart_quotes($text) { $pattern = '/"((.)*?)"/i'; $text = preg_replace($pattern,"“\\1”",stripslashes($text)); $text = str_replace("\"","-",$text); $text = addslashes($text); return $text; } ?>
