Having the same problem with Windows-1250 chars:

<?php
echo PHP_VERSION . '<br />' . PHP_EOL;
echo 'Testing: ' . htmlentities('ščćžđ ŠČĆŽĐ') . '<br />' . PHP_EOL;
echo 'Testing: ' . htmlspecialchars('ščćžđ ŠČĆŽĐ') . '<br />' . 
PHP_EOL;
echo 'Testing: ' . substr('ščćžđ ŠČĆŽĐ', 0) . '<br />' . PHP_EOL;
?>

substr works fine, htmlentities and htmlspecialchars don't return anything.

Affected: PHP 5.4.X
Works fine in 5.3.X and previous.

Sincerely,

Klemen
