htmlentities and datamanagers

[sheppardzwc]

Hi all, ran into a bit of a problem here,

Trying to insert some information I'm getting from IMDb into a post but whenever it has certain characters like an apostrophe it converts it into it's entity counterpart? (&#x27 Any idea how to prevent this.. is there a variable I need to pass into the datamanager? Tried html_entity_decode when I set the pagetext in the DM but it doesn't have the "entities" yet so it isn't decoding anything...

Thanks.

(here's a snippet of what's going on)

PHP Code:

<?php

            foreach ($movie->cast() as $cast) {
                $num++;
                if ($num <= $castnum) {
                    $actors = array_merge((!is_array($actors)) ? array() : $actors, array(
                        $cast['name']   =>  array(
                            'role'  =>  $cast['role'],
                            'photo' =>  $cast['thumb']
                    )));
                }    
            }
            foreach ($actors as $actor => $other) {
                $castformatted .= $actor . ' as ' . $other['role'] . "\r\n";
            }
            $info = str_replace('{id}', $id, $vbulletin->options['auto_imdb_infoformat']);
            $info = str_replace('{title}', $title, $info);
            $info = str_replace('{year}', $year, $info);
            $info = str_replace('{cast}', $castformatted, $info);
            $info = str_replace('{genre}', $genre, $info);
            $info = str_replace('{photo}', $photo, $info);
            $dm = datamanager_init('Post', $vbulletin, ERRTYPE_ARRAY, 'threadpost');
            $dm->set_existing(fetch_postinfo($newpost['postid']));
            $dm->set('pagetext', $newpost['message'] . "\r\n\r\n" . html_entity_decode($info));

?>
