Hi there.

(1) $a = mb_convert_encoding($a, 'UTF-8','SJIS');
(2) $a = mb_convert_encoding($a, 'HTML-ENTITIES','UTF
-8');

Assuming you got correct result from example (1), you 
seem to be converting a sequence of SJIS-encoded data 
into HTML-ENTITIES while setting the source encoding to 
UTF-8 in example (2), which will never produce correct 
result.

It may be a bit too late to say, though...

I also notice that , i retried many times with the same setting .

+Apache1.3.31 , PHP4.3.8
+Apache1.3.31 , PHP5.0.0
+Apache2 , PHP5.0.0
+Apache2 , PHP4.3.8
+Omni 3 Alpha 3 , PHP4.3.8
+Omni 3 Alpha 3 , PHP5.0.0
on Windows XP (SP1) computers and the problems still remain the same
when i use PHP5.0.0 . I believe it's a bug and hope the problem will be
resolved.

$mbstring_cfgs = array(
'zlib.output_compression'   = '1',
'zlib.output_compression_level' = '9',
'mbstring.detect_order' = 'UTF-8',
'mbstring.http_input'   = 'UTF-8',
'mbstring.http_output'  = 'UTF-8',
'mbstring.internal_encoding'= 'UTF-8',
'mbstring.script_encoding'  = NULL,
'mbstring.substitute_character' = NULL 
);

foreach( $mbstring_cfgs as $k = $v )
{
ini_set ($k,$v);
}
$a = @$_POST['txt'];
$a = mb_convert_encoding($a, 'UTF-8','SJIS');
$a = mb_convert_encoding($a, 'HTML-ENTITIES','UTF-8');
echo $a;
=
Step One : Converting a SJIS encoded string to UTF-8 string . This step
is good , nothing trouble appeared.
Step Two : When convert UTF-8 string ( or whatever multi-byte string )
to HTML ENTITIES . PHP 5.0.0 return a wrong string with uncomplete
entities and strange characters.

I don't face this problem in PHP 4.3.3 RC3.

?php
$escaped = html_entity_decode('euro;aauml;', 
ENT_QUOTES, 'UTF-8');
var_dump($escaped);
var_dump(mb_convert_encoding($escaped, 'HTML-ENTITIES', 
'UTF-8'));
?

string(6) €aä
string(13) euro;aauml;

Works fine here.
