The ´ character is not part of iso-8859-15, but for instance iso-8859-1
please check your encoding. 

See http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/00b4/index.htm and
http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/00b4/charset_support.htm

If it still goes wrong please give the exact byte values used by your
encoding.

You can fix this bug with this code example

$str='dwadwadawd´dwadawd';
print(preg_replace("/&#(.*?);/","&#$1;",$str));

it is not so good but it's work...
