ID: 43896 Comment by: d dot herrlitz at klemm-hensen dot de Reported By: arnaud dot lb at gmail dot com Status: Open Bug Type: Strings related Operating System: * PHP Version: 5.2CVS, 5.3CVS (2008-03-25) New Comment:
It is still unfixed in 5.2.6! Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-06-27 17:32:43] sillyxone at yaoo dot com is also affected in 5.2, for example: $str = 'Hello' . chr(160) . 'there'; print(htmlentities($str, ENT_COMPAT, 'UTF-8')); Instead of printing "Hello there", it prints nothing (empty string). The same for htmlspecialchars(). Both functions work fine in 5.1 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-05-05 21:00:37] heurika at gmail dot com Hi, I've got the same Bug, posted on #43740. Please fix it. Thanks! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-02-17 13:25:22] andreas dot ravnestad at gmail dot com This seems to be breaking PEAR::Text_Wiki completely when using UTF-8: http://pear.php.net/bugs/bug.php?id=13136 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-01-24 20:51:11] tallyce at gmail dot com See also bugs 43294 and 43549 which seem to be the same thing. This is really starting to bite now. Please can this be fixed, or suggest how we can reliably process incoming user data in UTF8 given this behaviour change! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-01-24 12:29:58] arnaud dot lb at gmail dot com I made a patch for this bug: http://s3.amazonaws.com/arnaud.lb/php_htmlentities_utf.patch The internal get_next_char() function returns a status of FAILURE when it encounters a invalid or incomplete sequence, which causes the htmlspecialchars and htmlentities functions to return an empty string. This patch modify the behavior of these functions to skip invalid sequences, without discarding the whole string. This involves a very few changes and makes the behavior of theses functions more consistent with previous PHP versions. It also adds a few tests to htmlentities-utf.phpt. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
