Question

$varHi I know this is an extremely basic task, but I am some what confused.

I am pulling a String back from a Database and assigning it to $var. I am then outputting this value into a text area. However, when I do, the string is surrounded in ” “.

e.g. “This is the String”, but I just want : This is the String

I have tried many functions. I am using chr(34) to search for the “, but to no avail. It will only replace them if it is inside the string. Not on the outside / surrounding the string.

$var = str_replace( chr(34), "" ,$var);

Thanks In Advance for any help.

EDIT : Turn’s out I was outputting incorrectly into the text area
“”
should have been

Thank’s for the help.
