[Phpug] {Possible Spam} Re: Zend_feed and RTE

[David McCarthy (kreators.net)]

I am very disappointed with this very, very poor standard of coding.

Put a bit of effort in lads, and // where are your comments !

the solution:

<?php
function unichr($c) {
if ($c <= 0x7F) {
return chr($c);
} else if ($c <= 0x7FF) {
return chr(0xC0 | $c >> 6) . chr(0x80 | $c & 0x3F);
} else if ($c <= 0xFFFF) {
return chr(0xE0 | $c >> 12) . chr(0x80 | $c >> 6 & 0x3F)
. chr(0x80 | $c & 0x3F);
} else if ($c <= 0x10FFFF) {
return chr(0xF0 | $c >> 18) . chr(0x80 | $c >> 12 & 0x3F)
. chr(0x80 | $c >> 6 & 0x3F)
. chr(0x80 | $c & 0x3F);
} else {
return false;
}
}
function unhtmlentities($string)
{
// replace numeric entities
$string = preg_replace('~&#x([0-9a-f]+);~ei', 
'unichr(hexdec("\\1"))', $string);
$string = preg_replace('~&#([0-9]+);~e', 'unichr("\\1")', $string);
// replace literal entities
$trans_tbl = get_html_translation_table(HTML_ENTITIES);
$trans_tbl = array_flip($trans_tbl);
return strtr($string, $trans_tbl);
}

echo unhtmlentities('test ? test');
