This always occurs if there are special chars in any COMMENTS in the PHP file.

Same script (still encoded as UTF-8) but with declare(encoding = ISO-8859-1) prints out UTF-8 chars correct. >/opt/phpfarm/inst/bin/php-5.4.4 -i | grep multi zend.multibyte => On => On >/opt/phpfarm/inst/bin/php-5.4.4 -i | grep UTF default_charset => UTF-8 => UTF-8 zend.script_encoding => UTF-8 => UTF-8 exif.encode_unicode => UTF-8 => UTF-8 iconv.input_encoding => UTF-8 => UTF-8 iconv.internal_encoding => UTF-8 => UTF-8 iconv.output_encoding => UTF-8 => UTF-8 LANG => de_DE.UTF-8 _SERVER["LANG"] => de_DE.UTF-8 Test script: --------------- <?php declare(encoding = 'UTF-8'); echo htmlspecialchars('"aäaÃ', ENT_QUOTES | ENT_IGNORE, 'UTF-8'); echo "\n" . '"aäaÃ'; ?> Expected result: ---------------- "aäaà "aäaà Actual result: -------------- "aa "aâaâ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=62351&edit=1
