Problem in convert cell to string.

I have a cell show like this
% code
val =
title="
google
">
The value is 3*7 char. If I want to convert into string to be ---> title="google"> What can I do? I have found many solution but can't help for this one. Thank you.

Possibly, this is what you want:
strjoin(cellstr(val), '')

It's error --> Error using strjoin (line 52) First input must be a 1xN cell array of strings.
Is it because my cell has 3x7 char right? how to do it?
Anyway thank you for your answer.
It's not clear what the type of val is because of your use of the word cell which has a specific meaning in matlab. Is it a 3x1 cell array or a 3x7 char array (or something else)?
To know for sure, tell us the output of
whos val
It is 3x7 char.
In that case, my code works:
>> val = ['title="'
'google '
'"> '];
>> whos val
Name Size Bytes Class Attributes
val 3x7 42 char
>> strjoin(cellstr(val), '')
ans =
title="google">
Thank you. It's work

S = reshape(A',1,[])
No reason to convert to and from a cell.

Yes, there is, the extra spaces that cellstr trims. Your solution has an extra space after 'google' and a bunch of them after the closing '>'.

Ahh, I didn't realize cellstr implicitly calls deblank. Good to know!
Thank you very much.
