Hi there. I've written a simple program that makes a simple GET form
with a text input box and displays $_GET["foo"] when submitted.

Using Windows Character Map, I pasted in the Cyrillic capital "Ya" (the
backward R) and it came out as "Я". So far so good.

Then I sent in "[R] Я" (The [R] is the Cyrillic character again.)

That came out as "Я Я". How can I please tell the
difference between the Cyrillic and the character sequence '&', '#',
etc...?

It seems to me that the '&' character should be transformed into
"&" just like the Cyrillic characters. Perhaps I have misunderstood
something along the way.

LGK.
