title: Posting symbols with Facebook api
body: <p>I am trying to create special characters '•' (alt+7 with numlock on) on a Facebook api feed post using the PHP SDK. - Well, it doesn't work, there is an issue with the character's encoding. Also tried calling: <code>utf8_encode('•')</code> and that also didn't work.</p>
  
  <p>When typing ' &lt;3 ' Facebook parses it automatically and creates an heart sign (♥).</p>
  
  <p>Any idea how should I encode that, or maybe there is a special magic charset like '&lt;3' that creates a bullet? </p>
