replace the é with � in my explanation, by browser used UTF8 to post
the message ;-)

This is not a bug at all, you're doing something wrong here ;-)
THe first part of your code is:
<?
$str = "Le Café< Café <";
$str = htmlentities($str,ENT_QUOTES,"UTF-8");
This will try to interpret the $str as an UTF-8 string and add
htmlentities for all utf-8 chars that it finds in here.
Because é< is not a valid combination as a multi-byte UTF8 character,
the é is simply skipped.
I don't know why the second é isn't stripped out though.
Anyway, your code is wrong, don't try to use an iso-8859-1 string as
UTF8.

ascii is 7 bit, and accented characters are not in the 7 bit part and
thus could I see them with a different charset, please send me the
script.

There should be no hidden UTF-8 characters in the string: all ascii
compliant including the french accented e.
I did however have an error in the code where extra "(" was added. Here
is the complete and correct code you can just copy-paste from any
browser.
------
<?
$str = "Le Caf�< Caf� <";
$str = html_entity_decode(htmlentities($str,ENT_QUOTES,"UTF-8"));
echo $str;
?>
