Escaping quotation marks in PHP

Question

I am getting a parse error, and I think it\'s because of the quotation marks over \"time\". How can I make it treat it as a whole string?

Answer 1

Use the addslashes function:

 $str = "Is your name O'Reilly?";

 // Outputs: Is your name O\'Reilly?
   echo addslashes($str);
