Ok, i'm not that smart in regexp, here's what i'm simply trying to do
basically, i have a string with some already encoded entities, but i need to also encode ALL entities again EXCEPT the &
entity, so if we have a string
The Sun & Mars are planets
It will stay the same, because we don't need to encode &
in &
again
But if we'll have
The Sun — big hot planet
This should become
The Sun — big hot planet
I know it's silly, but that's what one parser wants..
Just do two substitutions:
&
with &
&
with &
