I have a few quickform text elements which values are grabbed from the db. these values from the db are of asian characters. it has no problem showing up the characters in normal html text element. I guess PHP PEAR had converted the characters into HTML entities like 21335;&#20083 before displaying it. Now, how do I convert them to their actual characters and display them as the value of the text elements? i had something like this now... $form->addElement("text", "txtName", "Name", array("value" => html_entity_decode($rows['name'])); but this doesn't work. please help me --------------------------------- Celebrate Yahoo!'s 10th Birthday!
