str_replace help

Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

Hey there,

I'm a PHP newb, I'm having troubles with the str_replace function. I want to clean up bad html to valid xhtml, I am using:

Code: $pee = str_replace('&', '&', $pee);
It works, but doesn't change & to &amp; when the content is inside of <blockquote><p>stuff here & there</p></blockquote>

can anyone assist?
