Basically I am going to turn some funny characters into HTML entities using the aforementioned HTML::Entities so I can display them in a HTML page. I therefore need to accept them, but also the other chars. I don't want to allow people posting dodgy stuff that is going to be damaging...
As far as I am aware HTML::Entities will only turn characters into their HTML entity equivalent and vice versa, depending on the function used, correct? Does this explain? I'm afraid my explanations are somewhat cryptic sometimes - sorry.
