trying to convert #039; to an apostrophe

[Bobafart]

Hello,

I am trying to convert this:

Dodgers#039; Lowe keeps Bonds stuck at 751

to this:

Dodgers' Lowe keeps Bonds stuck at 751

I am using:


html_entity_decode($headline)


but it isn't converting #039; to '

thanks in advance

urldecode()? should work possibly :)

The proper html encoding of a ' is (with no space) - & #039;

Also, if you read the manual for the html_entity_decode(...) function, you will learn that to get it to decode a single quote, you must use the second parameter and set it to ENT_QUOTES - http://php.net/html_entity_decode
