This is the same question that McHenry asked today.
The answer is simple: use html_entity_dec ode():
<?php
echo html_entity_dec ode('Thuyền Và Biển');
?>

HTH.

What text char-set/encoding do you want the text to be?

[ngocviet]

I want to convert it to UTF-8 encoding

You will have to do it manually using preg_replace_ca llback(), as I
don't believe html_entity_dec ode() is capable of decoding such
entities. Here're the basics:

$text = preg_replace_ca llback('/&#(d+);/',
'numeric_html_e ntity_replace', $text);

function numeric_html_en tity_replace($m ) {
$unicode = (int) $m[1];
$utf8 = /* encode the Uncode value */
return $utf8
}

The tricky part is converting the Unicode value to a UTF-8 string.

There's a solution for that at php.net

http://fi.php.net/manual/en/function.chr.php#55978

chr seems to be ASCII-only (which is kinda stupid if you think about it,
plenty of utf implementations these days) but "grey" had written a
workaround for it.

Thanks Kimmo Laine!
It solves my problem!
Code:

function unichr($dec)
{
if ($dec < 128) {
$utf = chr($dec);
} else if ($dec < 2048) {
$utf = chr(192 + (($dec - ($dec % 64)) / 64));
$utf .= chr(128 + ($dec % 64));
} else {
$utf = chr(224 + (($dec - ($dec % 4096)) / 4096));
$utf .= chr(128 + ((($dec % 4096) - ($dec % 64)) / 64));
$utf .= chr(128 + ($dec % 64));
}
return $utf;
}

$str = "Thuyền Và Biển";
$str = preg_replace("/&#(\d{2,5});/e", "unichr($1) ;", $str);
echo $str;
