Description:
------------
Example XML file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="us-ascii"?>
<Collection>
<DVD>
  ...
  <Title>Am&#233;lie</Title>
  ...
</DVD>
</Collection>

This is referring the movie "Amelie", and &#233 should turn into an accented 'e' (?), but instead it gets processed as "Amélie".

Reproduce code:
---------------
$Collection = simplexml_load_file($filename);
echo htmlentities((string) $Collection->DVD->Title); // Produces "Am&Atilde;&copy;lie"

Expected result:
----------------
Preserve the &#233; in the title.

Actual result:
--------------
Changes &#233; to é

It's seems that the output is utf-8 encoded.
I personnaly used a utf8decode($string_to_output).
Don't know if it is a bug or not ! (Francois)

Sorry, but your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself.  For a
list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP, please
visit http://www.php.net/support.php as this bug system is not the
appropriate forum for asking support questions. 

Thank you for your interest in PHP.

This is not a bug, but a feature.
