Note Submitter: marques at displague dot com ---- htmlEncodeText (below) needs a small tweak, the dash needs to be made literal to get picked up in cases like '<a href="blah-blah.php">'. I have been using this function to parse my postgresql database calls since I have alot of unicode data and I don't want HTML data to be neutered (via htmlentities()). <?php function htmlEncodeText ($string) { $pattern = '<([a-zA-Z0-9\.\, "\'_\/\-\+~=;:\(\)?&#%![\]@]+)>'; preg_match_all ('/' . $pattern . '/', $string, $tagMatches, PREG_SET_ORDER); $textMatches = preg_split ('/' . $pattern . '/', $string); foreach ($textMatches as $key => $value) { $textMatches [$key] = htmlentities ($value); } for ($i = 0; $i < count ($textMatches); $i ++) { $textMatches [$i] = $textMatches [$i] . $tagMatches [$i] [0]; } return implode ($textMatches); } ?> --Editor note: Combined some corrections to the regex pattern, thanks to fabian dot lange at web dot de, hammertscrew at veryweb dot com, webmaster AT scholesmafia DOT co DOT uk, thomas AT cosifan DOT de and marques at displague dot com---
