Hello,
Here is the VBScript I want to convert to PHP:

Dim buffer = New String("")
buffer = buffer &("<Section name=""GLOBAL"" >" )

I know double double quotes are to escape so I tried backslash in PHP instead of double double quotes.

$buffer .= '("<Section name=\"GLOBAL\" >" )';

The PHP output is : ("" )

Please help. Thanks everyone !

It's because your output is being parsed. It's html after all. This is what you are looking for:
