This is not a bug ? what else is a bug ?
I only want to get correct displayed names regardless 
wether solution make this.

$arg="M?ller & M?der";
$output=htmlentities($arg);

// $output as result per definition of function 
htmlentities() should be:

M&#252;ller &#38; M&#228;der

or

M&uuml;ller & M&auml;der 

and nothing else like

M?ller & M?der

Thank You
