how to stop '...' being displayed as a question mark using php string replace

I'm working with stripslashes(),str_replace(), and htmlentities() right now. Whatever gets the job done.

One weird thing, the client has a pause in some text described with '...'. When it displays on the browser it displays as a question mark graphic. Does anyone know how to just display ...? Can they please share the answer?

Example: Captain if we don't fight they...will kill us both.

Thanks in advance!

It seems someone's using "..." as single unicode character. Try this:

$string = str_replace("…", "...", $string);

Your PHP file must be saved in Unicode to make it work properly.
