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

From: ta@alea-active.com Operating system: Linux PHP version: 4.0.4pl1 PHP Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem Bug description: Wrong handling of text string "&currency" 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.
