Replace "" not in tags only

[scraff]

Hi,

I need to replace speach marks ("") but only if they are NOT in tags! Here i am replaceing all:

$content = str_replace('"', """, $content);

But it also replaces them in:

<img name=hedcase src="image.jpg" border=0>

giving:

<IMG src=&quot;image.jpg&quot; border=0 name=hedcase>

How do i stop this?

Thanks

Hey cheif,

Try this on for size.

This will do what your looking for. It's not the best move to keep a HTML code in a database. That is just what myself and my team does for standard practice. If you can advoid it then try that. Also don't forget about it's brother

and the inverse

Here's a function I wrote some time back that could help.
