Why I am not able to echo 'sort=name'?

Question

This is a weird issue.

I just trying to print/create a string like below :

sort="name<string>"

so I just do

echo 'sort="name<string>"';

however, it seems that PHP store it as :

sort="name"

What do I miss?

You could also consider adding `header('Content-Type: text/plain');` at the top of your script to force verbatim output. — Ja͢ck, Oct 24 '13 at 05:21
my bad. fixing bugs in the middle of night is surely not a good thing to do. — Rudy, Oct 24 '13 at 07:40

Try this...

echo htmlspecialchars('sort="name<string>"', ENT_QUOTES, 'UTF-8');
