be careful when converting from iso-8859-1 to utf-8.
even if you explicitly specify the character encoding of a page as iso-8859-1(via headers and strict xml defs), windows 2000 will ignore that and interpret it as whatever character set it has natively installed.
for example, i wrote char #128 into a page, with char encoding iso-8859-1, and it displayed in internet explorer (& mozilla) as a euro symbol.
it should have displayed a box, denoting that char #128 is undefined in iso-8859-1. The problem was it was displaying in "Windows: western europe" (my native character set).
this led to confusion when i tried to convert this euro to UTF-8 via mb_convert_encoding()
IE displays UTF-8 correctly- and because PHP correctly converted #128 into a box in UTF-8, IE would show a box.
so all i saw was mb_convert_encoding() converting a euro symbol into a box. It took me a long time to figure out what was going on.
Here's a tip for anyone using Flash and PHP for storing HTML output submitted from a Flash text field in a database or whatever.
Flash submits its HTML special characters in UTF-8, so you can use the following function to convert those into HTML entity characters:
function utf8html($utf8str)
{
return htmlentities(mb_convert_encoding($utf8str,"ISO-8859-1","UTF-8"));
}
To add to the Flash conversion comment below, here's how I convert back from what I've stored in a database after converting from Flash HTML text field output, in order to load it back into a Flash HTML text field:
function htmltoflash($htmlstr)
{
return str_replace("<br />","\n",
str_replace("<","<",
str_replace(">",">",
mb_convert_encoding(html_entity_decode($htmlstr),
"UTF-8","ISO-8859-1"))));
}
Why did you use the php html encode functions? mbstring has it's own Encoding which is (as far as I tested it) much more usefull:
HTML-ENTITIES
Example:
$text = mb_convert_encoding($text, 'HTML-ENTITIES', "UTF-8");
many people below talk about using
<?php
mb_convert_encode($s,'HTML-ENTITIES','UTF-8');
?>
to convert non-ascii code into html-readable stuff. Due to my webserver being out of my control, I was unable to set the database character set, and whenever PHP made a copy of my $s variable that it had pulled out of the database, it would convert it to nasty latin1 automatically and not leave it in it's beautiful UTF-8 glory.
So [insert korean characters here] turned into ?????.
I found myself needing to pass by reference (which of course is deprecated/nonexistent in recent versions of PHP)
so instead of
<?php
mb_convert_encode(&$s,'HTML-ENTITIES','UTF-8');
?>
which worked perfectly until I upgraded, so I had to use
<?php
call_user_func_array('mb_convert_encoding', array(&$s,'HTML-ENTITIES','UTF-8'));
?>
Hope it helps someone else out
For those wanting to convert from $set to MacRoman, use iconv():
<?php
$string = iconv('UTF-8', 'macintosh', $string);
?>
('macintosh' is the IANA name for the MacRoman character set.)
I\'d like to share some code to convert latin diacritics to their
traditional 7bit representation, like, for example,
- à,ç,é,î,... to a,c,e,i,...
- ß to ss
- ä,Ä,... to ae,Ae,...
- ë,... to e,...
(mb_convert \"7bit\" would simply delete any offending characters).
I might have missed on your country\'s typographic
conventions--correct me then.
<?php
/**
* @args string $text line of encoded text
* string $from_enc (encoding type of $text, e.g. UTF-8, ISO-8859-1)
*
* @returns 7bit representation
*/
function to7bit($text,$from_enc) {
$text = mb_convert_encoding($text,\'HTML-ENTITIES\',$from_enc);
$text = preg_replace(
array(\'/ß/\',\'/&(..)lig;/\',
\'/&([aouAOU])uml;/\',\'/&(.)[^;]*;/\'),
array(\'ss\',\"$1\",\"$1\".\'e\',\"$1\"),
$text);
return $text;
}
?>
Enjoy :-)

[EDIT BY danbrown AT php DOT net: Author provided the following update on 27-FEB-2012.]

An addendum to my "to7bit" function referenced below in the notes.
The function is supposed to solve the problem that some languages require a different 7bit rendering of special (umlauted) characters for sorting or other applications. For example, the German ß ligature is usually written "ss" in 7bit context. Dutch ÿ is typically rendered "ij" (not "y").
The original function works well with word (alphabet) character entities and I've seen it used in many places. But non-word entities cause funny results:
E.g., "©" is rendered as "c", "­" as "s" and "&rquo;" as "r".
The following version fixes this by converting non-alphanumeric characters (also chains thereof) to '_'.
<?php
/**
* @args string $text line of encoded text
* string $from_enc (encoding type of $text, e.g. UTF-8, ISO-8859-1)
*
* @returns 7bit representation
*/
function to7bit($text,$from_enc) {
$text = preg_replace(/W+/,'_',$text);
$text = mb_convert_encoding($text,'HTML-ENTITIES',$from_enc);
$text = preg_replace(
array('/ß/','/&(..)lig;/',
'/&([aouAOU])uml;/','/ÿ/','/&(.)[^;]*;/'),
array('ss',"$1","$1".'e','ij',"$1"),
$text);
return $text;
}
?>
Enjoy again,
Johannes
As an alternative to Johannes's suggestion for converting strings from other character sets to a 7bit representation while not just deleting latin diacritics, you might try this:
<?php
$text = iconv($from_enc, 'US-ASCII//TRANSLIT', $text);
?>
The only disadvantage is that it does not convert "ä" to "ae", but it handles punctuation and other special characters better.

When converting Japanese strings to ISO-2022-JP or JIS on PHP >= 5.2.1, you can use "ISO-2022-JP-MS" instead of them.Kishu-Izon (platform dependent) characters are converted correctly with the encoding, as same as with eucJP-win or with SJIS-win.
Hey guys. For everybody who's looking for a function that is converting an iso-string to utf8 or an utf8-string to iso, here's your solution:
public function encodeToUtf8($string) {
return mb_convert_encoding($string, "UTF-8", mb_detect_encoding($string, "UTF-8, ISO-8859-1, ISO-8859-15", true));
}
public function encodeToIso($string) {
return mb_convert_encoding($string, "ISO-8859-1", mb_detect_encoding($string, "UTF-8, ISO-8859-1, ISO-8859-15", true));
}
For me these functions are working fine. Give it a try
For those who can´t use mb_convert_encoding() to convert from one charset to another as a metter of lower version of php, try iconv().
I had this problem converting to japanese charset:
$txt=mb_convert_encoding($txt,'SJIS',$this->encode);
And I could fix it by using this:
$txt = iconv('UTF-8', 'SJIS', $txt);
Maybe it´s helpfull for someone else! ;)
Clean a string for use as filename by simply replacing all unwanted characters with underscore (ASCII converts to 7bit). It removes slightly more chars than necessary. Hope its useful.
$fileName = 'Test:!"$%&/()=ÖÄÜöäü<<';
echo strtr(mb_convert_encoding($fileName,'ASCII'),
' ,;:?*#!§$%&/(){}<>=`´|\\\'"',
'____________________________');
rodrigo at bb2 dot co dot jp wrote that inconv works better than mb_convert_encoding, I find that when converting from uft8 to shift_jis$conv_str = mb_convert_encoding($str,$toCS,$fromCS);
works while
$conv_str = iconv($fromCS,$toCS.'//IGNORE',$str);
removes tildes from $str.
For the php-noobs (like me) - working with flash and php.
Here's a simple snippet of code that worked great for me, getting php to show special Danish characters, from a Flash email form:
<?php
// Name Escape
$escName = mb_convert_encoding($_POST["Name"], "ISO-8859-1", "UTF-8");
// message escape
$escMessage = mb_convert_encoding($_POST["Message"], "ISO-8859-1", "UTF-8");
// Headers.. and so on...
?>
My solution below was slightly incorrect, so here is the correct version (I posted at the end of a long day, never a good idea!)
Again, this is a quick and dirty solution to stop mb_convert_encoding from filling your string with question marks whenever it encounters an illegal character for the target encoding.
<?php
function convert_to ( $source, $target_encoding )
{
// detect the character encoding of the incoming file
$encoding = mb_detect_encoding( $source, "auto" );
// escape all of the question marks so we can remove artifacts from
// the unicode conversion process
$target = str_replace( "?", "[question_mark]", $source );
// convert the string to the target encoding
$target = mb_convert_encoding( $target, $target_encoding, $encoding);
// remove any question marks that have been introduced because of illegal characters
$target = str_replace( "?", "", $target );
// replace the token string "[question_mark]" with the symbol "?"
$target = str_replace( "[question_mark]", "?", $target );
return $target;
}
?>
Hope this helps someone! (Admins should feel free to delete my previous, incorrect, post for clarity)
-A
aaron, to discard unsupported characters instead of printing a ?, you might as well simply set the configuration directive:
mbstring.substitute_character = "none"
in your php.ini. Be sure to include the quotes around none. Or at run-time with
<?php
ini_set('mbstring.substitute_character', "none");
?>
instead of ini_set(), you can try this
mb_substitute_character("none");
It appears that when dealing with an unknown "from encoding" the function will both throw an E_WARNING and proceed to convert the string from ISO-8859-1 to the "to encoding".Note that `mb_convert_encoding($val, 'HTML-ENTITIES')` does not escape '\'', '"', '<', '>', or '&'.I've been trying to find the charset of a norwegian (with a lot of ø, æ, å) txt file written on a Mac, i've found it in this way:
<?php
$text = "A strange string to pass, maybe with some ø, æ, å characters.";
foreach(mb_list_encodings() as $chr){
echo mb_convert_encoding($text, 'UTF-8', $chr)." : ".$chr."<br>";
}
?>
The line that looks good, gives you the encoding it was written in.
Hope can help someone
If you want to convert japanese to ISO-2022-JP it is highly recommended to use ISO-2022-JP-MS as the target encoding instead. This includes the extended character set and avoids ? in the text. For example the often used "1 in a circle" ① will be correctly converted then.If you are trying to generate a CSV (with extended chars) to be opened at Exel for Mac, the only that worked for me was:
<?php mb_convert_encoding( $CSV, 'Windows-1252', 'UTF-8'); ?>
I also tried this:
<?php
//Separado OK, chars MAL
iconv('MACINTOSH', 'UTF8', $CSV);
//Separado MAL, chars OK
chr(255).chr(254).mb_convert_encoding( $CSV, 'UCS-2LE', 'UTF-8');
?>
But the first one didn't show extended chars correctly, and the second one, did't separe fields correctly
For my last project I needed to convert several CSV files from Windows-1250 to UTF-8, and after several days of searching around I found a function that is partially solved my problem, but it still has not transformed all the characters. So I made this:
function w1250_to_utf8($text) {
// map based on:
// http://konfiguracja.c0.pl/iso02vscp1250en.html
// http://konfiguracja.c0.pl/webpl/index_en.html#examp
// http://www.htmlentities.com/html/entities/
$map = array(
chr(0x8A) => chr(0xA9),
chr(0x8C) => chr(0xA6),
chr(0x8D) => chr(0xAB),
chr(0x8E) => chr(0xAE),

chr(0x80) => '€',
chr(0x82) => '‚',
chr(0x84) => '„',
chr(0x85) => '…',
chr(0x86) => '†',
chr(0x87) => '‡',
chr(0x89) => '‰',
chr(0x8B) => '‹',
chr(0x91) => '‘',
chr(0x92) => '’',
chr(0x93) => '“',
chr(0x94) => '”',
chr(0x95) => '•',
chr(0x96) => '–',
chr(0x97) => '—',
chr(0x99) => '™',
chr(0x9B) => '’',
chr(0xA6) => '¦',
chr(0xA9) => '©',
chr(0xAB) => '«',
chr(0xAE) => '®',
chr(0xB1) => '±',
chr(0xB5) => 'µ',
chr(0xB6) => '¶',
chr(0xB7) => '·',
chr(0xBB) => '»',
);
return html_entity_decode(mb_convert_encoding(strtr($text, $map), 'UTF-8', 'ISO-8859-2'), ENT_QUOTES, 'UTF-8');
}
If you are attempting to convert "UTF-8" text to "ISO-8859-1" and the result is always returning in "ASCII", place the following line of code before the mb_convert_encoding:
mb_detect_order(array('UTF-8', 'ISO-8859-1'));
It is necessary to force a specific search order for the conversion to work
// convert UTF8 to DOS = CP850
//
// $utf8_text=UTF8-Formatted text;
// $dos=CP850-Formatted text;
// have fun
$dos = mb_convert_encoding($utf8_text, "CP850", mb_detect_encoding($utf8_text, "UTF-8, CP850, ISO-8859-15", true));
When you need to convert from HTML-ENTITIES, but your UTF-8 string is partially broken (not all chars in UTF-8) - in this case passing string to mb_convert_encoding($string, 'UTF-8', 'HTML-ENTITIES'); - corrupts chars in string even more. In this case you need to replace html entities gradually to preserve character good encoding. I wrote such closure for this job :<?php
$decode_entities = function($string) {
preg_match_all("/&#?\w+;/", $string, $entities, PREG_SET_ORDER);
$entities = array_unique(array_column($entities, 0));
foreach ($entities as $entity) {
$decoded = mb_convert_encoding($entity, 'UTF-8', 'HTML-ENTITIES');
$string = str_replace($entity, $decoded, $string);
}
return $string;
};
?>

Text-encoding HTML-ENTITIES will be deprecated as of PHP 8.2.
To convert all non-ASCII characters into entities (to produce pure 7-bit HTML output), I was using:
<?php
echo mb_convert_encoding( htmlspecialchars( $text, ENT_QUOTES, 'UTF-8' ), 'HTML-ENTITIES', 'UTF-8' );
?>
I can get the identical result with:
<?php
echo mb_encode_numericentity( htmlentities( $text, ENT_QUOTES, 'UTF-8' ), [0x80, 0x10FFFF, 0, ~0], 'UTF-8' );

If you have what looks like ISO-8859-1, but it includes "smart quotes" courtesy of Microsoft software, or people cutting and pasting content from Microsoft software, then what you're actually dealing with is probably Windows-1252. Try this:
<?php
$cleanText = mb_convert_encoding($text, 'UTF-8', 'Windows-1252');
?>
The annoying part is that the auto detection (ie: the mb_detect_encoding function) will often think Windows-1252 is ISO-8859-1. Close, but no cigar. This is critical if you're then trying to do unserialize on the resulting text, because the byte count of the string needs to be perfect.
