There is some text in which some words are wrapped in a combination of characters \ ". For example, Sample text \" Username \ "lorem ipsum. I want to get rid of these nasty \" using a regular expression, but I can’t correctly add them to the pattern. Tried and through the coding of these characters and just write, but nothing comes out, tell me how to choose these characters in a regular expression.

  • Please provide an example of code that does not work - tutankhamun

your string

$str = 'Sample text \"Username\" lorem ipsum';

regular expression so

 echo(preg_replace('/\\\"/',"",$str));

or so

 echo(preg_replace("/\\\\\"/","",$str));

    In your case, regulars are not needed. Enough str_replace () function

    For example, replace the combination \" quotes "

     $str = 'Sample text \"Username\" lorem ipsum'; $str = str_replace('\"', '"', $str); var_dump($str);

    Result

     string 'Sample text "Username" lorem ipsum' (length=34)

    or completely remove such combination

     $str = 'Sample text \"Username\" lorem ipsum'; $str = str_replace('\"', '', $str); var_dump($str);

    Result

     string 'Sample text Username lorem ipsum' (length=32)
