javascript does not pass single quote to php server side correctly

I stored in javascript variable that

echo '';

as a string and http call the variable to transfer it into php with

$data = file_get_contents("php://input");
$objData = json_decode($data);

However, the result will be always as

echo '

and if there is

echo '';
echo '';

then result will be

 echo '; 
 echo ';

I wonder how to resolve this situation with some kind of javascript build in function that can somehow maybe, see all the ' and make sure none them will not disappear.

Are there other characters that may encounter similar situation?

CONDITION: the string is stored in js first, I can not take the string without an http call.

I use CodeMirror and Angular

I tried I tried var myEscapedJSONString = myJSONString.replace(/'/g, " ' "), but its just happened that result becomes"echo "instead....

Thanks

escape like echo \' \' or create an object in js and send it as json – toesslab Jun 26 '14 at 20:06

Have a look [here](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4253367/how-to-escape-a-json-string-containing-newline-characters-using-javascript). – John Jun 26 '14 at 20:24
@John, I updated the last sentence of the question, but what suggested seems not working very well.... – ey dee ey em Jun 26 '14 at 20:45

I'm confused. You're calling `json_decode()` but `echo '';` isn't JSON. – VoteyDisciple Jun 26 '14 at 20:46
@VoteyDisciple Ah! I see, but echo'' is stored as string value of an object inside a JSON though! – ey dee ey em Jun 26 '14 at 20:48
Can you give an example of the JSON? – Martin Jun 26 '14 at 22:02
@Chen is [this](http://jsfiddle.net/bvVbE/1/) what you're looking for? – John Jun 27 '14 at 07:13
@John, I typed echo ('1'); into the demo, but get Uncaught TypeError: undefined is not a function error – ey dee ey em Jun 27 '14 at 14:25
