Just copy and paste the above content into a new php page :

<!doctype html public "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
<title>Bugland with double quotes</title>
</head>

<body>

<!-- Fails with PHP 4.2.1 Build (May 12 2002 23:51:56) -->
<!-- Unexpected : all ending double quotes are removed ! Result : 

<a href="javascript:DoSomething('123', 'abc\"defghi\jkl');>bugland</a>

-->

<a href="javascript:DoSomething('123', 'abc\"defghi\"jkl');">bugland</a>

</body>
</html>

Of course read "below" instead of "above" :)
Merry Christmas !

I found the origin of the bug.

It doesn't occurs in PHP, it comes from my browsers when you display the page source : Phoenix 0.5 and Mozilla browser 1.2.1.

The bug #21187 can be closed.
