String .replace is not working in Android

android, string

Solution

Try `String s1 = s.replace("\"", "\\\"");`

Explanation: When referencing a quote or backslash in a string, i.e. anything inside double quotes, a `\` is required to state that you want the quote to appear within the quotes, not end the quotes. Does this make sense?

For example, you would write `String message = "She said \"Hello\" the other day."`, so that the backslashes represent that the quotes don't actually end the whole string, but are rather to be part of the string.
