PHP POSTing with quotes

Hi, I have a normal form with a textbox and if i type something like

Code:

---

John said "Hello"

---

then wrote that to a text file and then i opened the text file its contents would say

Code:

---

John said /"Hello/"

---

How can i stop this from happening?
Thanks, dandono.

just replace / with blank space bcoz " can't be entered in a string as string is any thing enclosed in quotes...So it converts it in escape sequence ... if u want it not to include / then u need to replace it.

If it's \" then you must have magic quotes on. Use stripslashes() to remove backslashes from quotes.

I didnt think of that. I thought i had to go through php.ini or something. I used this:

PHP Code:

---

<?php
$text=$_POST['txt'];
$text=str_replace('\"',"&quot",$text);
?>

---

Thanks, dandono.
