New Comment:
correct me if i'm wrong, but this function returns nothin' in case of 'Test123'
and thats okay ?
...and not everyone is allowed to change that php.ini setting
in some cases as a user you dont know which encoding is used...
in such a case htmlspecialchars discards all data... thats a fantastic idea..

You can also set your default_charset back to iso-8859-1 in your php.ini file,
but really these days you should be using utf-8.

The default encoding as of PHP 5.4 is UTF-8 (it was ISO-8859-1 before).
Therefore, if your string is in ISO-8859-1, you must specify the encoding.
Closing as bogus.

Description:
------------
when any string contains any char of these -> äöüÃ
and the string is processed with htmlspecialchars it results in an empty
string...
Test script:
---------------
<?php
echo htmlspecialchars('Test123 äöüÃ');
?>
Actual result:
--------------
nothin...
