Doc #65390 [Com]: default argument of htmlentities() wrong in function signature in documentation

Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=65390&edit=1 ID: 65390 Comment by: cmbecker69 at gmx dot de Reported by: l dot felber at gmx dot ch Summary: default argument of htmlentities() wrong in function signature in documentation Status: Open Type: Documentation Problem Package: *Unicode Issues PHP Version: 5.5.1 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: The documentation on the encoding parameter states: | Like htmlspecialchars(), htmlentities() takes an optional | third argument /encoding/ which defines encoding used in | conversion. If omitted, the default value for this argument | is ISO-8859-1 in versions of PHP prior to 5.4.0, and UTF-8 | from PHP 5.4.0 onwards. From the function changelog: | 5.4.0 The default value for the encoding parameter was | changed to UTF-8. This is up-to-date in the German and French translation, but not in the *Italian* translation. The documentation is correct, that $encoding defaults to UTF-8 (verified for PHP 5.4.7, 5.4.13 and 5.5.0RC2). Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2013-08-05 09:22:49] l dot felber at gmx dot ch Description: ------------ --- From manual page: http://www.php.net/function.htmlentities#refsect1- function.htmlentities-description --- There is no actual bug, but the documentation on http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.htmlentities is inconsistent: The default value of the $encoding parameter of the htmlentities function is in the signature on top 'UTF-8' and in the encoding-parameter description 'ISO-8859- 1' (which seems to be the actual default) Expected result: ---------------- Default value should be shown as 'ISO-8859-1' in function signature. Well actually you should change the default in the implementation to 'UTF-8' (and maybe completely remove all support for all other encodings), but thats probably another issue ;-P ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=65390&edit=1
