ID: 11463 User Update by: ta@alea-active.com Status: Bogus Bug Type: *General Issues Operating system: Linux PHP Version: 4.0.4pl1 Description: Wrong handling of text string "&currency" You're right. I already saw that. It's an IE bug, IE auto completes the &curren statement to &curren; while netscape doesn't do that. Previous Comments: --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2001-06-13 13:29:45] sniper@php.net You gotta be kidding? Don't you know anything about HTML?? This is definately NOT a bug in PHP.. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2001-06-13 07:42:29] ta@alea-active.com It's not possible to output any content that includes the phrase "&curren" in it. The &curren gets replaced by some mystic char "¤". The following script reproduces the error: <? // This gets displayed wrong echo "&curren"; echo "<BR>"; // Ths gets displayed wrong also echo "&currency"; echo "<BR>"; // This is rendered correctly echo "&curre"; ?> This error is reproducable on the php sites also (zend.com/php3.com). Just search for something and type "&curren" as the search string.
