A memo on how to convert character codes for platform-dependent characters from EUC-JP to UTF-8 in PHP.

mb_convert_encoding(mb_convert_encoding($value,"sjis-win","EUC-JP"),"UTF-8","sjis-win")

By first converting from EUC-JP to sjis-win, then from sjis-win to UTF-8, it seems you can properly convert character codes including platform-dependent characters.
