How is the CSV being generated? Seems to me like your problem isn't
ggetcsv(), but rather the file itself.
Commonly, a CSV file is a series of values, separated by a comma (duh!!).
The separated values are generally enclosed in double quotes ("), as it
would appear yours are.
Any double quotes within each value (eg: she said "hello") are escaped with
a slash (eg: she said \"hello\").
If you are generating the CSV, then you can addslashes() to each value to
escape the quotes, and then later on, stripslashes() to get rid of them.
Sample line from your CSV should look like this:
---
"1","foo","harry said \"what is it?\"","foo"
"1","bah","\"don't know\" said sally","something"
---
When echoing these values to the browser, you would strip the slashes.
Cheers,
Justin
