Both htmlspecialchars and htmlentities take a third parameter that is
the charset. In cake this parameter is ignored and defaults to
ISO-8859-1. In the case of htmlspecialchars this shouldn't make any
difference, since the characters that are converted (<>&") fall in the
ascii range.
htmlentities as far as I can tell is only used once in the html helper
but is not normally called (and it looks like it has a bug 1.2).
So I doubt this functions are the cause of any encoding problem.
Why do you think they are important for german chars?
