Which of the following is the correct way to include a double quote inside a double-quoted string in PHP?
AThis is a "quote" inside
BThis is a ""quote"" inside
CThis is a \"quote\" inside
DThis is a 'quote' inside
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
  1. Step 1: Recognize string delimiters and escaping rules

    In PHP, to include a double quote inside a double-quoted string, you must escape it with a backslash (\").
  2. Step 2: Check each option for correct syntax

    "This is a \"quote\" inside" correctly escapes the double quotes. Unescaped double quotes like in "This is a "quote" inside" cause syntax errors. Adjacent string literals like "This is a ""quote"" inside" cause syntax errors. "This is a 'quote' inside" uses single quotes and does not include double quotes.
  3. Final Answer:

    This is a \"quote\" inside -> Option C
  4. Quick Check:

    Escape double quotes inside double quotes with \" [OK]
Quick Trick: Escape double quotes inside "..." with \" [OK]
Common Mistakes:
  • Not escaping double quotes inside double quotes
  • Using single quotes but escaping double quotes
  • Unescaped quotes causing syntax errors
