note 26379 added to function.htmlentities

without heavy scientific analysis, this seems to work as a quick fix to making text originating from a Microsoft Word document display as HTML: function DoHTMLEntities ($string) { $trans_tbl = get_html_translation_table (HTML_ENTITIES); // MS Word strangeness.. // smart single/ double quotes: $trans_tbl[chr(145)] = '\''; $trans_tbl[chr(146)] = '\''; $trans_tbl[chr(147)] = '"'; $trans_tbl[chr(148)] = '"'; // é : $trans_tbl[chr(142)] = 'é'; return strtr ($string, $trans_tbl); } -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.htmlentities.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+26379 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+26379 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+26379
