do not understand why you have drc= in value varible
<option value=drc="'<?php echo $row['drc']; ?>"><?php echo $row['dico']; ?></option>
or
echo "<option value=drc=\"{$row['drc']}\">{$row['dico']}</option>";
Assuming this is part of a <select><option> HTML string, can you please show us a representation of what you want for the end product? The more I look at this, the less it makes sense to me. Thanks, ~Ray

Thanks, this tip solve my problem.
The accepted solution cannot possibly solve the problem because it creates a PHP parse error. I will ask a moderator to reopen the question. A tested and working answer was posted at ID:37023971.

It is always a good idea to test the solutions posted by the experts here at EE. I test my code before I post it, but as you can see here not everyone takes the time and effort to prepare a test. And unfortunately you do not have any way of knowing whether the proposed solutions are any good unless you test them yourself. Caveat Emptor.
Best of luck with your project, ~Ray

Escape the single quote you want to add with /.
Not 100% sure of the syntax you'll need but it would be something like this.
<option value='<?php echo '"drc=/''.$row['drc'].'/'"'?>'><?php echo '$row['dico']' ?></option>
I've tried to highlight what i added in bold but not sure if it's clear.
You could also try using chr(39).
Finally you could use CHAR and CONCAT in the MySQl query to return the value plus quotes instead of just the value:
CONCAT(CHAR(39), drc, CHAR(39))
If any of those work I'd probably go for the last one.
