Don't worry about being quoted on that -- it most definitely will. Using
decimal values in HTML entities is very common, especially for writing
non-ASCII and non-usual-HTML-entities characters (such as CJK Kanji,
mathematical operators or cyrillic glyphs) without worrying about the
transfer charset. Personally though, I usually convert into proper UTF-8
instead of using entities. It takes a *lot* less space, providing that
the web server is properly configured not to say that the document is
ISO-8859-1 or something.
Personally, I use a seven-liner perl script to convert the official HTML
entitity DTDs into a PHP include file:
print("<?php\n\$htmlentities = array(\n");
while(<>) {
if(/<!ENTITY\s+(\w+)\s+CDATA\s+\"&\#(\d+);\"/) {
print "\t\"$1\" => $2,\n";
}
}
print("\t);\n?>\n");
The result is as follows:
