htmlentities

(PHP 3, PHP 4, PHP 5)

htmlentities --  Convert all applicable characters to HTML entities

Description

string htmlentities ( string string [, int quote_style [, string charset]] )

This function is identical to htmlspecialchars() in all ways, except with htmlentities() , all characters which have HTML character entity equivalents are translated into these entities.

Like htmlspecialchars() , the optional second quote_style parameter lets you define what will be done with 'single' and "double" quotes. It takes on one of three constants with the default being ENT_COMPAT :

表格 1. Available quote_style constants

Constant Name Description
ENT_COMPAT Will convert double-quotes and leave single-quotes alone.
ENT_QUOTES Will convert both double and single quotes.
ENT_NOQUOTES Will leave both double and single quotes unconverted.

Support for the optional quote parameter was added in PHP 4.0.3.

Like htmlspecialchars() , it takes an optional third argument charset which defines character set used in conversion. Support for this argument was added in PHP 4.1.0. Presently, the ISO-8859-1 character set is used as the default.

PHP 4.3.0 及其后续版本支持如下字符集。

例子 1. A htmlentities() example

<?php
$str
= "A 'quote' is <b>bold</b>" ;

// Outputs: A 'quote' is &lt;b&gt;bold&lt;/b&gt;
echo htmlentities ( $str );

// Outputs: A &#039;quote&#039; is &lt;b&gt;bold&lt;/b&gt;
echo htmlentities ( $str , ENT_QUOTES );
?>
