I also noticed a similar issue when developing with locales on one of
my phptal sites, the character in question was the British 'Pound'
symbol defined in the en_GB locale, as used for their currency. I did
not try with another charset other than en_AU which worked as
expected, because it returns a regular dollar-sign ($) rather than the
Pound . I was able to work around the issue by modifying the
'phptal_escape()' function like this:

function phptal_escape($var, $ent, $encoding)
{

if (is_object($var)){
return htmlspecialchars($var-__toString(), $ent, $encoding);
}
if (is_string($var)){

// TODO: work out why this is broken when locales is set to en_GB
//return htmlspecialchars($var, $ent, $encoding);
return htmlspecialchars($var);
}
if (is_bool($var)){
return (int)$var;
}
return $var;
}

I simply worked around it and added that todo on my local machine
because I thought I may have been doing something incorrect with the
locales.

I do not know if this worked in 1.18, as I only added the ability to
change locales to my application after an upgrade to PHPTal 1.1.9 had
been performed; consequently this may be a different issue to the
original poster's issue.

If these help:

$ php -v

I did not try PHPTal 1.1.8.
