You shouldn't use htmlentities when putting it into the DB. Use it when displaying the text.
I tried it both ways and it only works correctly when I do use htmlentities($_POST['text']) in my insert query. I'm not showing the text to the user on page 3 at all.
Well, if you're happy with it "just working" and not knowing why or how it's going to break in the future... have fun.
