best way to format html

[dan]

Im sure this has been asked a million times, but Im I couldn't find it.
So, why not make it 1 million +1.

I am looking for the best way to format html, to be put into a INSERT
statement. The main problem being the double quotes. Unfortunately not
using double quotes is not an option.

should I ,
a. Use regular expressions to change all " to something odd like ~!~. and
then when I select it again, use another regex to change ~!~ back to ".
Very ugly method.

b. Use some sort of base64 encoding. not sure how much that slows stuff
down.

c. use a regex to change the "'s to a \".. Would prefer not to do this
either.

or d. Some other method.

You could use single quotes. Use regex to convert all " to ' or better
yet to &quot;
