[openSRS-PHP-dev] Html characters in the command string

[Chuck C. <ch...@so...>]

Hello:

I've been using the OpenSRS_base.php class for some time during the
development of our domain registration system.  Once we got into production,
I noticed that the OpenSRS API would choke any time a user entered any html
'special' characters into one of our contact information fields.

For example, if a user were to have an 'org_name' of 'Joe & Bob's Store',
The XML encoder would translate the '&' character into '&'.

I have solved this problem by stripping or replacing those characters that
get incorrectly translated.  However, I wanted to know if there are any
other options.  It would be nice if customer could have an '&' character in
the mix.
