Processing PHP

Hi, im trying to escape php code to convert all into html references ie

$str = "$_GET['foo'];"
echo encodeString($str);

but $str would convert into what ever that var is but I don't want to do that.
i want to convert the ' into ' and the $ into $. Anyone know how?

$new = htmlspecialchars($_GET['foo']);
echo "$new";

Try that.

http://php.net/manual/en/function.htmlspecialchars.php

$str = '$_GET[\'foo\']';
echo htmlentities($str);Like that? Not really syre what you're trying to do with $_GET['foo']
