If you want to specify it, you need to pass the appropriate charset name to the function via the third parameter. For more info, see http://www.php.net/htmlspecialchars. And moreover, htmlspecialchars() doesn't support iso-8859-2. Here's the list of supported charsets: ISO-8859-1 (alias: ISO8859-1) ISO-8859-15 (alias: ISO8859-15) UTF-8 cp1252 (alias: Windows-1252, 1252) BIG5 (alias: 950) GB2312 (alias: 936) BIG5-HKSCS Shift_JIS (alias: SJIS, 932) EUCJP (alias: EUC-JP) I think this list should have been put on the manual in the first place. Let me marking this problem report as Documentation Problem. Thanks for your report. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-01-13 02:49:06] szabo_a at interware dot hu Then some more info: Here is an example: http://www.parbanszep.hu/aa.php And the file: <html> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-2"> </head> <body> <h1><?=htmlspecialchars($xx);?></h1> <form method="post"> <input type="text" name="xx" value="<?=$xx?>"> <textarea name="yy"><?=htmlspecialchars($yy);?></textarea> <input type="submit"> </form> </body> </html> Now try to enter õûÕÛ into the two fields, they will become &#245; etc. instead of their one-char-form.
