mb_convert_variables — Convert character code in variable(s)
Description
string mb_convert_variables ( string $to_encoding , mixed $from_encoding , mixed &$vars [, mixed &$... ] )
Converts character encoding of variables vars in encoding from_encoding to encoding to_encoding.

vars -
varsis the reference to the variable being converted. String, Array and Object are accepted. mb_convert_variables() assumes all parameters have the same encoding. -
... -
Additional
vars.
Return Values
The character encoding before conversion for success, or FALSE for failure.
