Re^2: Matching ampersands that are NOT part of an HTML entity?

I may be missing something, but it looks like you're printing and then discarding the utf8-encoded text, then continuing on with the non-utf8 text. Shouldn't it be something like this?

    my $utf8 = HTML::Entities::decode($line);
    $utf8 = Encode::encode_utf8($utf8);
    my $proper = HTML::Entities::encode($utf8);
    print $proper;

Update: Ah, nevermind, I misunderstood what you were saying initially.

Uh... no. Did you run it? The `print Encode::encode_utf8($utf8);` is just there to see the intermediary step. `Encode::encode_utf8` makes the output "safe" for the terminal: no "wide character" warnings.	[reply] [d/l] [select]
