Note Submitter: duke at redump dot de ---- The function xmlentities works great, but there can be up to 5 numbers after the &# string. See this for example: ベースボー ルスターズ2 This is a valid (wrapped) japanese string. To successfully use it with xmlentities, you need to replace return preg_replace("/&(?![A-Za-z]{0,4}\w{2,3};|#[0-9]{2,3};)/","&" , strtr($string, $trans)); with return preg_replace("/&(?![A-Za-z]{0,4}\w{2,3};|#[0-9]{2,5};)/","&" , strtr($string, $trans)); (3 to 5).
