Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-07-18 00:10:45] [EMAIL PROTECTED] I even don't think this is a valid bug in the first place. You passed a string that is encoded in ISO-8859-15 to htmlspecialchars() while specifying UTF-8 to force the string to be treated as "UTF-8". One should never depend on the past wrond behaviour with which invalid byte sequences pass through. Besides, you can always work around it by giving ISO-8859-15 to the third argument. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-06-27 17:32:43] sillyxone at yaoo dot com is also affected in 5.2, for example: $str = 'Hello' . chr(160) . 'there'; print(htmlentities($str, ENT_COMPAT, 'UTF-8')); Instead of printing "Hello there", it prints nothing (empty string). The same for htmlspecialchars(). Both functions work fine in 5.1 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-05-05 21:00:37] heurika at gmail dot com Hi, I've got the same Bug, posted on #43740. Please fix it. Thanks! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-02-17 13:25:22] andreas dot ravnestad at gmail dot com This seems to be breaking PEAR::Text_Wiki completely when using UTF-8: http://pear.php.net/bugs/bug.php?id=13136 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-01-24 20:51:11] tallyce at gmail dot com See also bugs 43294 and 43549 which seem to be the same thing. This is really starting to bite now. Please can this be fixed, or suggest how we can reliably process incoming user data in UTF8 given this behaviour change! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
