simply use str_replace:

Code: Select all

$new_value = str_replace('\"','"',$original_value);

pay close attention to the use of '

damn I thought this would fix my problem but it doesn't, let me explain you what I'm trying to do:

I'm trying to create a script that can change the html code of a page, it worked well axcept for one problem, it always puts quotes " or ' like \" or \' if I want to change the code through this function : fwrite($file_pointer, $input); the $input is submitted from another page and so every " or ' this $input contains he outputs like \" \' because he fills in the $input by "text of input" I guess, does anybody has an idea how to change this because pages that contain scriptfunction or where I do a <body bgcolor="red"> don't work ...

thx
