entity_encoding

This option controls how entities/characters get processed by TinyMCE. The value can be set as shown in Encoding Types below.

The base entities < > & ' and " will always be entity encoded into their named equivalents. Though ' and " will only be encoded within attribute values and < > will only be encoded within text nodes. This is correct according too the HTML and XML specs.
