Escape Utility
Sometimes you'll find yourself needing an escaped string. Just so you don't have to write one yourself, here's a simple PHP page to help you escape and unescape large strings.
This can also come in handy if you need to get convert large documents into xml/html friendly versions. If you take a gander of the source of a page (from a browser) after you've converted. You will find between the <textarea> tags, html friendly text. Enjoy ;)
