converting special chars in html code

[andyvl]

Hey folks,

I'm writing a program that get's all movie info from imdb via the sourcecode of the webpage.

Now I encouter the problem that when I store certain values in a string
some special chars are stored as for example '

Of course when I display my movieInfo I don't want to see
Amelia's Boyfriend but Amelia's Boyfriend

Any advise?

(also, is it best to store the special chars as ' in a database and convert them after the query, or is it beter to store the string as ...Amelia's...

Thx for your help
