[pmwiki-devel] lower casing diacritics

[Petko Yotov]

You may be able to use:

   $entity = mb_convert_encoding($decoded, 'HTML');


You may or may not need to specify a $from_encoding argument. From the 
documentation it seems before PHP 8.0 $from_encoding was required. 
Documentation:

   https://php.net/mb_convert_encoding
