O.P. Huh?  PHP Help
I'm trying to write an .asx file with a PHP code. But can't because the PHP wont let me add " " (quotations) to the script. It only allows me to add ' ' (commas). Heres the code I'm using. It picks a random song and writes it to an .asx file. Then redirects to an embedded media player to play the .asx file.

code:
<?php 
$files = getRandomMedia('../media/',320,240,20);     //call to media directory

function getRandomMedia($dir,$h,$w,$b)
{
$movie = getRandomClip($dir);

$s  = '"'.$dir.$movie.'" ';


return $s;
}
function getRandomClip($dir,$type='random')
{
global $errors;

  if (is_dir($dir)) { 

  $fd = opendir($dir); 
  $images = array();

      while (($part = @readdir($fd)) == true) { 

      clearstatcache();

          if ( eregi("(avi|mpg|mp3|mov|wav)$",$part) ) {
              $images[] = $part;
          }
      }

    // adding this in case you want to return the image array
    if ($type == 'all') { return $images; }

    // Be sure to call srand() once per script
    srand ((double) microtime() * 1000000);
    $key = rand (0,sizeof($images)-1);

    return $images[$key];

  } else {
      $errors[] = $dir.' is not a directory';
      return false;
  }
}

$filename = 'playlist.asx';
$fp = fopen($filename, "w");
$write = fwrite($fp, "
<ASX version = "3.0">

<TITLE>Xplode Radio</TITLE>
<Entry>
<Ref href = "$files" />
<Ref href = "../media/Light of the Dark.mp3" />
<Ref href = "../media/Tranced.mp3" />     
</Entry>

</ASX>
");
fclose($fp);
?>

<script language="javascript">
<!--
location.replace("/radio.htm");
-->
</script>


This is the part I need to be written exactly like this, but because of the " " I can't.

code:
<ASX version = "3.0">

<TITLE>Xplode Radio</TITLE>
<Entry>
<Ref href = "$files" />
<Ref href = "../media/Light of the Dark.mp3" />
<Ref href = "../media/Tranced.mp3" />     
</Entry>

</ASX>


Is there any way to get it to write in the file exactly like this?


I also need to write each line separately, not like this:

<ASX version = '3.0'>[]<TITLE>Xplode Radio</TITLE>[]<Entry>[]<Ref href = '"../media/Light of the Dark.mp3" ' />[]<Ref href = '../media/Light of the Dark.mp3' />[]<Ref href = '../media/Tranced.mp3' />[]</Entry>[][]</ASX>

*[] = the symbol for next line


And if you see any errors in my code PLEASE tell me.

Thank You!
