Looking for a function

[Anon]

Hi,

Could anyone tell me if the is a function which is the opposite of htmlspecialchars()?

Ie I want to change the charactors back to their oringinals

Thanks

Suppose there exist such function htmlback();

If I have $text=""ation of clever man";
you apply $text=htmlspecialchars($text);

What I suppose to have in
$text=htmlback($text)?

The map defined by htmlspecialchars() is not injection, so it has not inverse, I think so.

P.S. Forgive me if I'm wrong :-)
