mb_convert_encoding - Convert character encoding

SYNOPSIS

       string mb_convert_encoding (string  $str, string  $to_encoding, [mixed  $from_encoding = mb_internal_encoding()])

DESCRIPTION

	Converts the character encoding of string$str to $to_encoding from optionally $from_encoding.

PARAMETERS

	      o $str
		- The string being encoded.

	      o $to_encoding
		- The type of encoding that $str is being converted to.

	      o $from_encoding
		-  Is  specified  by  character  code  names  before  conversion.  It is either an array, or a comma separated enumerated list. If
		$from_encoding is not specified, the internal encoding will be used.  See supported encodings.

RETURN VALUES

	The encoded string.

	      <?php
	      /* Convert internal character encoding to SJIS */
	      $str = mb_convert_encoding($str, "SJIS");

	      /* Convert EUC-JP to UTF-7 */
	      $str = mb_convert_encoding($str, "UTF-7", "EUC-JP");

	      /* Auto detect encoding from JIS, eucjp-win, sjis-win, then convert str to UCS-2LE */
	      $str = mb_convert_encoding($str, "UCS-2LE", "JIS, eucjp-win, sjis-win");

	      /* "auto" is expanded to "ASCII,JIS,UTF-8,EUC-JP,SJIS" */
	      $str = mb_convert_encoding($str, "EUC-JP", "auto");

DESCRIPTION

	Converts specified character codes in string$str from character code to HTML numeric character reference.

PARAMETERS

		- The string being encoded.

	      o $convmap
		-$convmap is array specifies code area to convert.

	      o $encoding
