I use iconv for this:
===
echo iconv("ISO-8859-2","UTF8",$text);
===
In my multilanguage sites I use something like that:
===
$charset=explode(";",$_SERVER['HTTP_ACCEPT_CHARSET']);
$charset=explode(",",$charset[0]);
$charset=$charset[0];
iconv_set_encoding("internal_encoding", "utf-8");
iconv_set_encoding("input_encoding", $charset);
iconv_set_encoding("output_encoding", $charset."//TRANSLIT");
ob_start("ob_iconv_handler");
foreach(array_keys($_POST) as $key) $POST[iconv($charset,"utf-8",$key)]=iconv($charset,"utf-8",$_POST[$key]);
$_POST=$POST;
foreach(array_keys($_GET) as $key) $GET[iconv($charset,"utf-8",$key)]=iconv($charset,"utf-8",$_GET[$key]);
$_GET=$GET;
include("html/main.php");
ob_end_flush();
===
It translates input data from browser encoding into utf8 and encodes it
back from utf8 output to browser encoding. All is done transparently.
All data I keep in utf8.
