JFTR: Utter nonsense.  "HTML-encoded string" was (well-)defined *by the OP* 
as a string where "<a>…</a>" would become at least "&lt;a>…&lt;/a>".

If you use cURL to retrieve a "web page" (correct: a web _document_, like an 
HTML document), the input is always *markup*, like "<a>…</a>".  It may also 
include character references (`&#215') or character entitity references 
(`&lt;'), but it will contain at least one tag (because the "web page" would 
otherwise be useless).
