PHP How to I make my textinput accept single quote or Double quotes

How do I make my textinput accept apostrophe or double quotes?

Everytime a user type's in this one: John's Birthday, I store this one in the database using mysql_real_escape_string().

What I wanted to do in here is to retrieve it in my text input. I tried this one

<input type='text' name='title' value='<?php echo $values->title; ?>' />

The problem here is it removes the single quote and the letters that comes after the quote. I tried to changed the value= '' from value="" but what if a user types a word that has开发者_如何学JAVA example this one: "You and Me". The problem is still in there.

I was thinking to use str_replace in doing this one and replace the ' into `, but again I was thinking that maybe there's an easy way to do it.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

You can replace double quotes with ". ' for single quotes.

Replace single quote with ‘
