Lets say we have double quotes in a string and we want to set a
textfield to that value:

$string = ' my "string"';

<input type="text" value="$string">

The double quotes will wreck havoc.

I thought of this:

$string=addcslashes($string'],'"');

But that didn't work. There must be a php function for doing this.
