Currently, I am working with database information that includes a character of blah^s (I have replaced the ' character with ^ in order to locate apostrophes within the row). I am using preg_replace to add apostrophes back into the string. Everything is functioning well, except for when I attempt to update an input text field using jquery.
$name = preg_replace('/(\^)/', ' ', '\'');
$name = "<input type='text' size='20' id='2' name='2' value='$name'> ";
I have successfully JSON encoded it along with all my other data.
$json = array(
'name' => $name
);
echo json_encode($json);
When checking the console with jquery, it returns "blah" instead of "blah's" which is required inside my input text field.
Any suggestions or ideas? Please share!
