In PHP 5.3.x the expected result will be returned. After an update on 5.4.7 it 
works no more

Hi,
with the following line of code you can see the problem.
In PHP 5.4.7 the funtions htmlentities and htmlspecialchars didn't support no 
more german umlauts. They returns an empty string.

Best regards,
Stephan

Test script:
---------------
echo "TEST:".
htmlentities('ÄÖÜäöüß')."|".htmlspecialchars('ÄÖÜäöüß')."|".'ÄÖÜäöüß';

Expected result:
----------------
TEST: ÄÖÜäöüß|ÄÖÜäöüß|ÄÖÜäöüß

Actual result:
--------------
TEST: ||ÄÖÜäöüß
