What common errors can occur when using both single and double quotes in PHP code?

Mixing single and double quotes in PHP code can lead to syntax errors if not used correctly. One common error is forgetting to escape quotes within a string, causing PHP to interpret them as the end of the string. To solve this issue, you can either escape the quotes using a backslash (\) or use a combination of single and double quotes to prevent conflicts. 

// Incorrect usage of single and double quotes
$name = 'John's';
// Correct usage by escaping the single quote
$name = 'John\'s';
// Another correct usage using double quotes
$name = "John's";
