I want it to numeric entities. This is probably the simplest way of doing it; write a simple function that translates entity names to numbers, then start an output buffer at the beginning of your script using the function as an output callback function. Then everything after that automatically gets converted. In fact it's so simple, I'll do it for you... Code posted to pastebin: http://robinv.pastebin.com/592400 -robin

I want it to numeric entities. Yes; 'tis true. However, in looking at the manual page further, I see at least one user submitted entry that looks like what you may be desiring, not too far down the page.

The remaining user submitted entries skirt the subject, but don't provide a complete translation. I estimate about 245 named entities (w3c approved), which can be found here: http://www.roborg.co.uk/html_entities/ If all of those were pumped through some of those user submitted functions, then I think that would provide Jacob's solution. Unfortunately, I don't know of any current php functions that do that. I'm sure you realize that they (Jacob's link above) are simply taking a small set of entities to their to their Unicode equivalents, which are in HEX. For example a euro-glyph code point in Unicode is 20AC, which is of course HEX for 8364 DEC. The problem is that unfortunately most browsers do not yet support Unicode characters, so one must either use euro or it's decimal equivalent in the form of #8364. So, at the moment, we are in transition. It might be a nice and a somewhat simple project for someone to convert all named entities into numeric equivalents. If I find some spare time (other than writing post to this list), perhaps I'll do it. tedd -- http://sperling.com -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
