If you are looking for shorter replacement for |htmlentities, the below plugin might be helpful to use.

File: modifier.utf8.php
Code:

<?php
/**
* UTF-8 safe HTML Entities
*/
function smarty_modifier_utf8($utf8_string='')
{
   # ENT_IGNORE is not available on old systems.
   return htmlentities($utf8_string, ENT_QUOTES, "UTF-8");
}
?>


Usage:
Code:
<input type="text" name="cms[page_title]" value="{$cms.page_title|utf8}" class="input" id="cms-page_title" />


It is safe to use as value="" as well. For example in the pages where you want to EDIT some records from the database.

1) what exactly is the benefit of serving utf8 as entities?
2) whatever happened to {$foo|escape:"htmlall"}?
