Why do you want to do that? The various XML parsing PHP extensions
will transparently handle that for you anyway ...

Probably I didn't get the right extension, but when trying to get
attributes, the parser separate my text in 3
text: xxxxx'yyy
output:
xxxxx
'
yyy

Anyway I want to save such string in a Mysql table, so I've to care about,
as the insert statement is like insert.....,'xxxxx'yyy',
I've removed the ' with ereg_replace, but I'd like to get such character in
Mysql table, but don't know how.

This is something you always have to be aware of:
The parser may split character data into several chunks
and it is your responsibility to join them together if
needed.

Thanks for your asnwer.
I've seen you are senior support Enginner for mysql, you probably may help
for a question that wasn't answered. (very short)

I've a page where I get the result of a query. Each result points to a page
where there is the detail of the record. I'd like to add "previous" and
"next"buttons. The only way I've found is to put the results in an array,
then on any page, the array will tell me the next and previous record. It's
there a better way using mysql ?

Offsets:

SELECT [...] FROM [table] LIMIT 20, 1;

List.php (with limit 20):
<a href="detail.php?article=2>detail 2</a>
<a href="detail.php?article=3>detail 3</a>
<a href="detail.php?article=4>detail 4</a>
.....

Ok, once I click on article detail 3, how to make previous or next from
there since I'm on an other page and I don't run the query every time ? From
detail.php, it wouldn't be possible to go to 2 or 4 without coming back to
list.php.
