There's no sane reason to use htmlentities() instead of
htmlspecialchars(). As long as you specify the charset of a
page with a Content-Type meta in the head of a page (which
you should ALWAYS do in the first place), escaping all
characters is completely pointless and will only grow the
size of your page. Only the special HTML characters (<,
>, &, etc.) need to be escaped, which is exactly what
htmlspecialchars() does.
