How do I replace " with ' ?

[vigour]

I have this text stored in mySQL

This is the mighty boat "Vulcan".

But when I echo it out only this text shows:

This is the mighty boat

I want to replace " with ' like this on the fly:

This is the mighty boat 'Vulcan'.

I have tried str_replace but can't get it to work.

That does not make sense. The double quotes should never cause a problem, except in the case that you are printing to the value attribute of a form control, and are using double quotes to delimit the value of the form control. In such a case [man]htmlspecialchars/man is appropriate.

This is my code where I get the row from mySQL:

$title = $row['bilden_forestaller'];

And using it for the title:

echo '<td width="134" height="136" background="pictures/system/cell_back.jpg"><div align="center"><a href="product_info.php?product_id='.$row["product_id"].'"target="main"><img src="pictures/small/'.$row['bild'].'" title="'.$title.'" style="border: solid 1px black" /></a></div></td>';

Ah yes, htmlspecialchars() should be used.

htmlspecialchars($string) will work. try addslashes($string) too.

addslashes() is probably useless and may corrupt your data in this case.
