Converts
character encoding of variables vars
in
encoding from_encoding
to encoding
to_encoding
.
mb_convert_variables() join strings in Array
or Object to detect encoding, since encoding detection tends to
fail for short strings. Therefore, it is impossible to mix
encoding in single array or object.
Parameters
to_encoding
The encoding that the string is being converted to.
from_encoding
from_encoding
is specified as an array
or comma separated string, it tries to detect encoding from
from-coding
. When from_encoding
is omitted, detect_order is used.
vars
vars
is the reference to the
variable being converted. String, Array and Object are accepted.
mb_convert_variables() assumes all parameters
have the same encoding.

Return Values
