there is no problem - you are writing to the file exactly what you asked for - namely
a string changed to uppercase with all characters that have html entities converted as
such.

have you read the manual? rather than just stare at it.

$str = "Asunción";
var_dump( mb_strtoupper($str, "ISO-8859-1"), mb_convert_case($str, MB_CASE_UPPER) );

if I run that code (on the cmd line, but that should make no difference) I get:

string(8) "ASUNCIÓN"
string(8) "ASUNCIÓN"

as you see there are no html entities BECAUSE I DIDN'T ASK FOR THEM.

oh and stop cross-posting.
