Hi !
I have a problem with this code
Code:
$arr_data = array (
"first"=>htmlentities ($this->validation->first),
"last"=>$this->validation->last,
"email"=>$this->validation->email,
"username"=>$this->validation->username,
"password"=>$this->validation->password,
"sede"=>$this->validation->sede
);
$this->db->insert("pnl_users",$arr_data);In "first" field i try to use an htmlentites conversion, but when i insert the char 'à'
i obtain this conversion "Atilde sup2"(ò
instead of "agrave"(à Could you help me??
(i also tried to apply html entities directly in rules with $rules["first"]="htmlentities" but nothing changes)

ok.. i found where's the problem....the problem is DREAMWEAVER!
In my dreamerver settings i set "utf-8" as charset but it seems to use another strange charset notwithstanding my settings.
In fact if i open file where i wrote "echo (htmlentites("à"))" with another (opensource and freeware) software i read
"echo htmlentites("Ã");" ... really strange
