Bug #11463 Updated: Wrong handling of text string "&currency"

ID: 11463 Updated by: sniper Reported By: ta@alea-active.com Old-Status: Open Status: Bogus Old-Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem Bug Type: *General Issues Operating system: PHP Version: 4.0.4pl1 Assigned To: Comments: You gotta be kidding? Don't you know anything about HTML?? This is definately NOT a bug in PHP.. Previous Comments: --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [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.
