Need a remove \" from image src in php

Question

I need to replace \" from image src.

I have one form and i use the FCK editor for Details and when i upload image and submit a form then after i get below value in post

<img scr="\"http://test.in/public/admin/uploadfiles/Lighthouse(2).jpg\"">

So i need to remove \" from starting and \" from end so its display properly to me. I also try ltrim() and strreplace() but when i put some other things then it replace each place so i need to replace it only in img scr must start and end \" only

Any why to do this. I think this is possible using Regular expression but i have not enough knowledge for it.

Please suggest me any idea.

Answer 1

Disable magic_quotes in your php config, then edit all your text where this error occurs to correct.

Answer 2

Change the php.ini setting magic_quotes_gpc = Off. If you can't do that, use ini_set in the php code itself. If you can't do that, use stripslashes on the $_POST value you are getting.

Answer 3

I would agree with what @Lee is saying however if you need to do it via a regular expression. This should do it.

<?php
    $pattern = '/\\\"/';
    $replacement =  '';
    $subject = '<img scr="\"http://test.in/public/admin/uploadfiles/Lighthouse(2).jpg\"">';
    $result = preg_replace ($pattern, $replacement, $subject);
?> 

Answer 4

using regexps, you could do it with the following: to remove the first \", use

preg_replace('/<img scr=\"\\\/', '<img scr=', $your_string); 

and then replace the second part with

preg_replace('/\\\\"\">/', '">', $your_string);
