Hello I have this value in mysql database 

 ACER Press Conference First Look: 4.8″, 7″ & 10.1″ Tablets

when display it on the web using php, it look like this

ACER Press Conference First Look: 4.8″, 7″ & 10.1″ Tablets

instead of this
ACER Press Conference First Look: 4.8″, 7″ & 10.1″ Tablets

I used these two functions to insert it to database

$title        = mb_convert_encoding($_POST['title'],'HTML-ENTITIES', 'UTF-8');
$title=mysql_real_escape_string($title);

then display it as xml feed using joomla module “mod_syndicate” and send it to twitter connect
using com_autotweet

any help please?

thanks

    If you’re using htmlentities to sanitize the output but don’t want to double encode already existing character references, set the fourth parameter double_encode of htmlentities to false:

    $str = 'ACER Press Conference First Look: 4.8″, 7″ & 10.1″ Tablets';

echo htmlentities($str, ENT_COMPAT, 'ISO-8859-1', true);
// => ACER Press Conference First Look: 4.8″, 7″ & 10.1″ Tablets

echo htmlentities($str, ENT_COMPAT, 'ISO-8859-1', false);
// => ACER Press Conference First Look: 4.8″, 7″ & 10.1″ Tablets
