Hey guys…

So I'm trying to access a field through the get_cforms_entries API but It has a single quote in the name. I should have thought of this but didn't.

So now i have this in my array as a field name:

This year Manifesto's main event falls on the International Day of Peace. In tribute to this and in

I would call it as:

' . $e['data']['This year Manifesto's main event falls on the International Day of Peace. In tribute to this and in'] . '

But clearly the single quote in "Manifesto's" breaks it and won't get the data.

I have been thinking about this one for a while and can't figure out how to escape that single quote. I tried renaming the field but it doesn't seem to affect the database.

Could I go into the DB and change the name there? Would that affect anything?

Any help would be appreciated.

Peace!

' . $e['data']["This year Manifesto\\'s main event falls on the International Day of Peace. In tribute to this and in"] . '

instead.

Thanks Oliver.

It doesn't seem to do the trick though.

Should that absolutely work?

It worked when I tried it.

You may also try to print the complete array:

print_r($e);

to see how it is stored.
