ENTITY

Converts string from from_encoding, or the current internal encoding, to to_encoding. If string is an ENTITY, all its ENTITY values will be converted recursively.

ENTITY

string
The ENTITY or ENTITY to be converted.

to_encoding
The desired encoding of the result.

from_encoding
The current encoding used to interpret string. Multiple encodings may be specified as an ENTITY or comma separated list, in which case the correct encoding will be guessed using the same algorithm as mb_detect_encoding.

If from_encoding is omitted or ENTITY, the mbstring.internal_encoding setting will be used if set, otherwise the default_charset setting.

See supported encodings for valid values of to_encoding and from_encoding.

ENTITY

The encoded ENTITY or ENTITY on success, ENTITY.

ENTITY

As of PHP 8.0.0, a ValueError is thrown if the value of to_encoding or from_encoding is an invalid encoding. Prior to PHP 8.0.0, a E_WARNING was emitted instead.
