TalkPHP - View Single Post - Changing é into html entities without touching the html elements ?

Peuplarchie · 11-08-2009, 05:29 PM

Good day to you all,
I'm working on a script which take the text from a txt file and add his content to an php page.
I have no problem with that part, see code below :

PHP Code:


			

$textsec = file_get_contents('text.txt');
echo nl2br($textsec);

This page can include <b> <u>... html element.

Where my problem start is that it's possible that I get some :

PHP Code:


			
&eacute;
&agrave;

..words with accent..

How can I convert them to their respective html entitie code without touching my html element ?

Thanks!
