Every time I insert š or ž to news I get "& # 3 5 3 ;" and "& # 3 8 2 ;". Actually there are no spaces between "" marks - I have to put them there because forum engine is changing them.
Is there any solution to that?

If you open news.inc.php and find:
$newstext = htmlspecialchars($newstext);

And replace with
//$newstext = htmlspecialchars($newstext);

This may fix it, but may also pose a problem if you have multiple users who you might not trust to not abuse HTML.

This is what I did in news.inc.php function unp_doNewsFormat($newstext)

PHP Code:

        if ($this->htmlallowance == '0')
        {
            $newstext = htmlspecialchars($newstext);
            $find = array("&amp;#352;", "&amp;#353;", "&amp;#381;", "&amp;#382;");
            $replace = array("& # 3 5 2 ;", " & # 3 5 3 ;", " & # 3 8  1 ;", " & # 3  8 2 ;");
            $newstext = str_replace($find, $replace, $newstext);
        } 

A little primitive, but it works.

PS! Again there are no spaces between "& # 3 5 2 ;", "& # 3 5 3 ;" etc in my code.
