note 61337 added to function.htmlentities

I use this function to convert imput from MS Word into html (ascii) compatible output. I hope it would work also for you. I have enabled magic_quotes on my server so maybe you won't need stripslashes and addslashes. I've also noticed that Opera 8.51 browses behaves somehow different from IE 6 and Firefox 1.5. I haven't check this functions with other browsers. <?php function convert_word_to_ascii($string) { $string = stripslashes($string); if ( stristr($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'], "Opera") ) $search = array('&#8216;', chr(96), '&#8217;', '&#8222;', '&#8221;', '&#8220;', '&#8230;', '&#8211;'); if ( stristr($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'], "Firefox") || stristr($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'], "MSIE") ) $search = array(chr(145), chr(146), chr(96), chr(132), chr(147), chr(148), chr(133), chr(150)); $replace = array( "'", "'", "'", '"', '"', '"', '...', '-'); $new_string = str_replace($search, $replace, $string); return addslashes($new_string); }; ?> ---- Server IP: 81.223.254.85 Probable Submitter: 212.76.37.134 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.htmlentities.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+61337 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+61337&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+61337&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+61337&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+61337&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: non-english -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+61337&report=yes&reason=non-english Delete: already in docs -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+61337&report=yes&reason=already+in+docs Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+61337&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+61337&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
