string htmlentities ( string $string [, int $quote_style [, string $charset
[, bool $double_encode]]] )
This function is identical to htmlspecialchars() in all ways, except with
htmlentities(), all characters which have HTML character entity equivalents
are translated into these entities.
This means that if there's an HTML equivelant it will translate into that.
For example. ' and " don't have HTML equivelants, it is ', anything
with a #number won't get translated. With htmlspecialchars it will.
Hope that answered your question.

data i need to display data on a page containing e.g. " but will
like it to be displayed as "
htmlspecialchars or htmlentities or page character set ?
Cheers
