Comments:
I *really* think this was a bad, bad thing.
It now makes HTMLSpecialChars backwards incompatible
with older versions of PHP4, not to mention PHP3.
If the original poster wanted to escape single quotes,
then he/she should be using htmlentities(), or urlencode(), or even strtr().
Needless to say, I need to recode a chunk of my site to deal with this "new feature".
Please, please, can we reverse this patch?
