Problem with HTML special characters

************************************************************************ * Do not Cc: me, because I READ THIS LIST, if I write here * * Keine Cc: am mich, ich LESE DIESE LISTE wenn ich hier schreibe * ************************************************************************ Hello *, On my Website I have a NEWS section which I can edit On-Line over my Web-Interface but I have a problem with umlauts. I can enter the "ü" as "&uulm;" and it is saved as such and it works properly but, if I now want to re-edit the NEWS, it is schown as "ü" in the input field of the <TEXTAREA>. <grmpf> Is there a command/function which can convert a whole text that it is shown correctly with all "&...;" sequences?
