How to load html string which contains double quotes into UIWebView

I have a html string looks like this: 

<html> <head> <title>some text</title> <link rel="stylesheet" href="http://www.xyz.com/css/main.mobile.css" /> ...

the text itself contains double quotes so how can I load into a NSString because I cannot do this;

 NSString *html = @"  "

put above html string in the double quote. My goal is to load the html string into UIVewView. Thanks in advance.

Another way is to replace all the double quotes in string with single quotes.

You could put a backslash in front of each quote

NSString *test = @"lorem\"ipsum\"do...";

or put the HTML in a separated file and load it into the NSString

// get a reference to our file
NSString *myPath = [[NSBundle mainBundle]pathForResource:@"myfile" ofType:@"html"];

// read the contents into a string
NSString *myFile = [[NSString alloc]initWithContentsOfFile:myPath encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding error:nil];

// display our file
NSLog("Our file contains this: %@", myFile);

If you are using a string literal, then you just need to escape the double-quotes with backslashes, like this:

NSString *html = @"<html> <head> <title>some text</title> <link rel=\"stylesheet\" ...";
