If the string is supposed to be HTML, you need to convert it into plain 
text. It can be extremaly tricky becase the two most obvious functions 
don't seem to work as advertised:

http://es.php.net/manual/en/function.html-entity-decode.php
http://es.php.net/manual/en/function.htmlspecialchars-decode.php

Another alternative is to use mb_convert_encoding():

<?php
$html = 
'url(./sites/all/themes/marinelli/img/backgrounds/men&#039;s_and_ladys&#039;_nights.jpg);';
var_dump(mb_convert_encoding($html, 'UTF-8', 'HTML-ENTITIES'));

Then, it's pretty straightforward to create the file.


If the string is supposed to be plain text already, I see no problem.
