Re: Re: Counterpart to htmlentities function: unhtmlentities

Well, if the general opinion is that there *should* be such a function included in PHP, around a week or so ago I implemented a version that uses the multiple charset aware tables that are already in html.c. But the voting was -0 (Derick) and +1 (Yasuo). Personally, I'm +0 since I have written the code but never ever needed to un-htmlentity a string in the last 2-3 years. --Wez.
