I've been dissatisfied with all the solutions I've yet seen for converting text into html entities, which all seem to have some drawback or another. So I wrote my own, borrowing heavily from other code posted on this site. http://www.prolifique.com/entities.php.txt makeSafeEntities() should take any text, convert it from the specified charset into UTF-8, then replace all inappropriate characters with appropriate (and legal) character entities, returning generic ISO-8859 HTML text. Should NOT reconvert any entities already in the text. makeAllEntities() does the same, but converts the entire string to entities. Useful for obscuring email addresses (in a lame but nonetheless somewhat effective way). Suggestions for improvement welcome! ---- Server IP: 216.194.113.175 Probable Submitter: 68.6.44.131 ---- X-Spam-Status: No, hits=3.1 required=5.0 tests=DATE_MISSING,FROM_NO_LOWER autolearn=no version=2.64 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.htmlentities.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/note/edit/65702 Del: integrated -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/65702/integrated Del: useless -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/65702/useless Del: bad code -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/65702/bad+code Del: spam -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/65702/spam Del: non-english -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/65702/non-english Del: in docs -- http://master.php.net/note/delete/65702/in+docs Del: other reasons-- http://master.php.net/note/delete/65702 Reject -- http://master.php.net/note/reject/65702 Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
