Escape quote does not work

[PHP5000]

Hello

I have been coding in PHP since at least 15 years ago, but there has been a gap for the last 4 years.  Now many things that I had done perfectly well in the past does not work.  For example /" which I used hundreds if not thousands of time when passing a string from a form to a database or vice versa no longer works.  Example is: \"Your inquiry about our services\"

Only the first word (Your) is kept, which is the first word before space.

Any idea why?

I have spent hours searching online through different forums and tutorials without any results.

thanks in advance.

this is a symptom of the browser not recognizing quotes around a value attribute in the markup. you would need to post your code and a sample of your data that reproducers the problem for anyone here to be able to help. also, what does the 'view source' in the browser show for the markup?

btw - instead of escaping double-quotes inside a php string, you can simply use single-quotes.
