Are there different types of double quotes in utf-8 (PHP, str_replace)?

There are many characters that look like quotation marks, most of them are used infrequently. The ones that are used more often are these three:

"   U+0022 QUOTATION MARK
“   U+201C LEFT DOUBLE QUOTATION MARK
”   U+201D RIGHT DOUBLE QUOTATION MARK

Some rarer ones are FULLWIDTH QUOTATION MARK, the DITTO MARK, the DOUBLE PRIME, the DOUBLE PRIME QUOTATION MARK, and so on. The Unicode.org "confusables" tool finds 15 characters similar to ".

Why don't you copy and paste the offending character here so we can identify it? Or you could use the HEX function to get the hexadecimal encoding of the character, that's another way of identifying it.
