Syntax formatting question this one

I have read that if you write \"" PHP ignores the first " is this correct as I have been having a few problems with my syntax

Good string tutorial @ http://www.zend.com/zend/tut/using-strings.php

You got it - use \ to escape characters which would otherwise delimit or alter the syntax.

yes you are correct about this.

in case you still have problems, you probably should post some code example that causes trouble.
