A quick scan of the ext/standard/html.c seems to indicate that get_html_translation_table() does, indeed, use the actual translation table as used by htmlentities(). Granted, it doesn't use the same 'table' as htmlspecialchars(), but unless those four entities change, it would strike me that divergence, while possible, is wildly unlikely (and quickly fixed). -- +----------------------------------------------------------------+ |Torben Wilson <torben@php.net> Netmill iTech| |http://www.coastnet.com/~torben http://www.netmill.fi| |Ph: 1 250 383-9735 torben@netmill.fi| +----------------------------------------------------------------+
