I have a string that has UTF-8 characters encoded using html
entities. For example the string "é 字" is being encoded as "é
字". I have no control over how this string is given to me, so
I need to figure out a way to decode "é 字" back into "é
字".

I have already tried urldecode, html_entity_decode, utf8_decode and
convert_uudecode without success. My server environment is limited to
the latest version of PHP 4, so I cant use any PHP 5 stuff.

Anyone have suggestions?
