I am using PHP Version 4.3.2-RC1

Can someone please clarify the htmlentities() function
for me? I have a variable called $notes2 that is
pulled from a database that has a pound sign in it.
When i echo that do the screen i get the following
output:

echo $notes;

output= £5,000

Instead of £5,000

I thought that if i did $notes=htmlentities($notes);
or echo htmlentities($notes); then the output would be
£5,000 but this isnt the case. Can someone see where i
am going wrong? 

Thanks for anyhelp in advance!
