note 93421 modified in function.strtr by danbrown

Hi all, as u probably know the is some truoble with the (for example) hungarian special characters. If I used the htmlentities() function, the simple chars had benn converted to the basic format, for example: & aacute;. However this was very simple, some cases it needs more transformation. As I would like to use the correct caracters even in php, html, js, and more, a wrote this short code to solve this issue: <?php function charcode ($text) { $text = htmlentities($text); //to convert the simple spec chars $search = array("& otilde;","&O tilde;","& ucirc;","&U circ;"); $replace = array("& #337;","& #336;","& #369;","& #368;"); $text = str_replace($search, $replace, $text); return $text; } ?> Now I am able to display any spec chars in any browser with any character encoding set. Hope U will find this helpful. Vyktor --was-- Hi all, as u probably know the is some truoble with the (for example) hungarian special characters.
