If only the PHP gods would bless us with a function such as 
htmlspecialchars() or maybe even htmlentities()... what a great world it 
would be... ;)

Take a look at the manual pages and they convert different character 
sets and handle quotes differently based upon the second parameter.

For example:



The above is generated with PHP and fetched from a database 
(postgresql). I'ld like to have the double qoutes replaced with 
"something else" ;) There could be other strange characters as well that 
needs to be replaced, so some sort of universal function would be really 
nice to get tips on… ;)

Try "htmlspecialchars()" and/or "htmlentities()".

double qoutes, with something that are more html-safe?
