Ran into this error today which is confusing and seems broken. Can someone explain why this would
throw an error and what the intended solution is? Thanks

htmlentities(): Passing null to parameter #1 ($string) of type string is deprecated: PHP 8.3

This code happens to be in a form building class so sometime $fieldValue is a string and other times
it is null. Both are valid.

$fieldValue = null;

echo htmlentities($fieldValue ?? '’);

Thanks
