Correction to my previous post: the set of ENTITY declarations must be inside a <!DOCTYPE
element; also is NOT pre-defined in XML and must be left in the entity list. I also
extended the list with the windows 1252 character set using a sample function borrowed from php.net
user comments and extended with euro entity which we need for our app. Here is the final code that
is in our production app:
<?php
// Generate a list of entity declarations from the HTML_ENTITIES set that PHP knows about to dump
into the document
function htmlentities_entities() {
$output = "<!DOCTYPE html [\n";
foreach (get_html_translation_table_CP1252(HTML_ENTITIES) as $value) {
$name = substr($value, 1, strlen($value) - 2);
switch ($name) {
// These ones we can skip because they're built into XML
case 'gt':
case 'lt':
case 'quot':
case 'apos':
case 'amp': break;
default: $output .= "<!ENTITY {$name}
\"&{$name};\">\n";
}
}
$output .= "]>\n";
return($output);
}
// ref: http://php.net/manual/en/function.get-html-translation-table.php#76564
function get_html_translation_table_CP1252($type) {
$trans = get_html_translation_table($type);
$trans[chr(130)] = '‚'; // Single Low-9 Quotation Mark
$trans[chr(131)] = 'ƒ'; // Latin Small Letter F With Hook
$trans[chr(132)] = '„'; // Double Low-9 Quotation Mark
$trans[chr(133)] = '…'; // Horizontal Ellipsis
$trans[chr(134)] = '†'; // Dagger
$trans[chr(135)] = '‡'; // Double Dagger
$trans[chr(136)] = 'ˆ'; // Modifier Letter Circumflex Accent
$trans[chr(137)] = '‰'; // Per Mille Sign
$trans[chr(138)] = 'Š'; // Latin Capital Letter S With Caron
$trans[chr(139)] = '‹'; // Single Left-Pointing Angle Quotation Mark
$trans[chr(140)] = 'Œ'; // Latin Capital Ligature OE
$trans[chr(145)] = '‘'; // Left Single Quotation Mark
$trans[chr(146)] = '’'; // Right Single Quotation Mark
$trans[chr(147)] = '“'; // Left Double Quotation Mark
$trans[chr(148)] = '”'; // Right Double Quotation Mark
$trans[chr(149)] = '•'; // Bullet
$trans[chr(150)] = '–'; // En Dash
$trans[chr(151)] = '—'; // Em Dash
$trans[chr(152)] = '˜'; // Small Tilde
$trans[chr(153)] = '™'; // Trade Mark Sign
$trans[chr(154)] = 'š'; // Latin Small Letter S With Caron

$trans['euro'] = '€'; // euro currency symbol
ksort($trans);
return $trans;
}

[EDIT BY danbrown AT php DOT net: The user's original note contained the following text:
"So here's something fun: if you create an XML document in PHP and use htmlentities() to
encode text data, then later want to read and parse the same document with PHP's xml_parse(),
unless you include entity declarations into the generated document, the parser will stop on the
unknown entities.
To account for this, I created a small function to take the translation table and turn it into XML
<!ENTITY> definitions. I insert this output into the XML document immediately after the
<?xml?> line and the parse errors magically vanish"
