What Are the Special Characters You Need to Escape in Double-Quoted Stings?

Answers:

Answer #1
There are two special characters you need to escape in a double-quote string: the double quote (") and the back slash (). Here is a PHP script example of double-quoted strings:

<?php
echo "Hello world!";
echo "Tom said: "Who's there?"";
echo " represents an operator.";
?>

This script will print:

Hello world!Tom said: "Who's there?" represents an operator.


Answer #2
print "Tom Said:\"Who's there?\"";
We need to escape \"(double quotes) by prefixing it with \ (backslash) like the above code
