I can confirm that it is in fact broken on PHP4, however it works fine on PHP5.

Will look for a way to make this work on PHP4 too.

Cheers,
Francois

I will commit it to CVS once I have finished testing it.

Doesn't need to be fixed in 2.0 since we require PHP 5.

1- fix for these warnings in cron:

"html_entity_decode bug - cannot yet handle MBCS in html_entity_decode()!"

by using this code:

utf8_encode(html_entity_decode($string));

instead of:

html_entity_decode($string, ENT_COMPAT, 'UTF-8');

--------(to here)------

utf8_encode() function converts characters from ISO-8859-1 to UTF-8.
Then, Multibyte UTF-8 characters were convereted to wrong unexpected characters...

function _convert()
{
// Variables used for building the link list
$this->_link_count = 0;
$this->_link_list = '';

$text = trim(stripslashes($this->html));

// Convert <PRE>
$this->_convert_pre($text);

// Run our defined search-and-replace
$text = preg_replace($this->search, $this->replace, $text);
$text = preg_replace_callback($this->callback_search, array(&$this, '_preg_callback'), $text);

// Replace known html entities
// $text = utf8_encode(html_entity_decode($text));
$text = html_entity_decode($text, ENT_COMPAT, 'UTF-8'); // (Here!!!)

// Remove unknown/unhandled entities (this cannot be done in search-and-replace block)
$text = preg_replace('/&[^&;]+;/i', '', $text);

Or, use mb_convert_encoding() function, please.
