首先必须检测使用了什么编码。在解析RSS提要时(可能通过HTTP)，应该从Content-Type HTTP报头字段的字符集参数中读取编码。如果不存在，则从XML处理指令的encoding属性中读取编码。如果也没有，请使用规范中定义的UTF-8。

以下是我可能会做的:

I’d use cURL to send and fetch the response. That allows you to set specific header fields and fetch the response header as well. After fetching the response, you have to parse the HTTP response and split it into header and body. The header should then contain the Content-Type header field that contains the MIME type and (hopefully) the charset parameter with the encoding/charset too. If not, we’ll analyse the XML PI for the presence of the encoding attribute and get the encoding from there. If that’s also missing, the XML specs define to use UTF-8 as encoding.

$url = 'http://www.lr-online.de/storage/rss/rss/sport.xml';

$accept = array(
    'type' => array('application/rss+xml', 'application/xml', 'application/rdf+xml', 'text/xml'),
    'charset' => array_diff(mb_list_encodings(), array('pass', 'auto', 'wchar', 'byte2be', 'byte2le', 'byte4be', 'byte4le', 'BASE64', 'UUENCODE', 'HTML-ENTITIES', 'Quoted-Printable', '7bit', '8bit'))
);
$header = array(
    'Accept: '.implode(', ', $accept['type']),
    'Accept-Charset: '.implode(', ', $accept['charset']),
);
$encoding = null;
$curl = curl_init($url);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_HEADER, true);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, $header);
$response = curl_exec($curl);
if (!$response) {
    // error fetching the response
} else {
    $offset = strpos($response, "\r\n\r\n");
    $header = substr($response, 0, $offset);
    if (!$header || !preg_match('/^Content-Type:\s+([^;]+)(?:;\s*charset=(.*))?/im', $header, $match)) {
        // error parsing the response
    } else {
        if (!in_array(strtolower($match[1]), array_map('strtolower', $accept['type']))) {
            // type not accepted
        }
        $encoding = trim($match[2], '"\'');
    }
    if (!$encoding) {
        $body = substr($response, $offset + 4);
        if (preg_match('/^<\?xml\s+version=(?:"[^"]*"|\'[^\']*\')\s+encoding=("[^"]*"|\'[^\']*\')/s', $body, $match)) {
            $encoding = trim($match[1], '"\'');
        }
    }
    if (!$encoding) {
        $encoding = 'utf-8';
    } else {
        if (!in_array($encoding, array_map('strtolower', $accept['charset']))) {
            // encoding not accepted
        }
        if ($encoding != 'utf-8') {
            $body = mb_convert_encoding($body, 'utf-8', $encoding);
        }
    }
    $simpleXML = simplexml_load_string($body, null, LIBXML_NOERROR);
    if (!$simpleXML) {
        // parse error
    } else {
        echo $simpleXML->asXML();
    }
}

mb_detect_encoding:

echo mb_detect_encoding($str, "auto");

Or

echo mb_detect_encoding($str, "UTF-8, ASCII, ISO-8859-1");

我真的不知道结果是什么，但我建议您只是使用不同编码的一些提要，并尝试mb_detect_encoding是否有效。

auto是“ASCII,JIS,UTF-8,EUC-JP,SJIS”的缩写。它返回检测到的字符集，您可以使用iconv将字符串转换为UTF-8。

<?php
function convertToUTF8($str) {
    $enc = mb_detect_encoding($str);

    if ($enc && $enc != 'UTF-8') {
        return iconv($enc, 'UTF-8', $str);
    } else {
        return $str;
    }
}
?>

我还没有测试过，所以不能保证。也许有更简单的方法。

对于汉字，通常采用GBK编码。此外，在测试时，投票最多的答案不成立。这里有一个简单的修复方法，让它也能正常工作:

function toUTF8($raw) {
    try{
        return mb_convert_encoding($raw, "UTF-8", "auto"); 
    }catch(\Exception $e){
        return mb_convert_encoding($raw, "UTF-8", "GBK"); 
    }
}

注:这个解决方案是在2017年编写的，应该可以修复当时PHP的问题。我还没有测试最新的PHP是否已经正确理解自动。

如果您将utf8_encode()应用于一个已经UTF-8的字符串，它将返回乱码的UTF-8输出。

我做了一个函数来解决所有这些问题。它被称为Encoding::toUTF8()。

你不需要知道字符串的编码是什么。它可以是Latin1 (ISO 8859-1)、Windows-1252或UTF-8，或者字符串可以是它们的混合。Encoding::toUTF8()将所有内容转换为UTF-8。

我这样做是因为一个服务给了我一个混乱的数据提要，在同一个字符串中混合了UTF-8和Latin1。

用法:

require_once('Encoding.php');
use \ForceUTF8\Encoding;  // It's namespaced now.

$utf8_string = Encoding::toUTF8($utf8_or_latin1_or_mixed_string);

$latin1_string = Encoding::toLatin1($utf8_or_latin1_or_mixed_string);

下载:

https://github.com/neitanod/forceutf8

我还包含了另一个函数Encoding::fixUFT8()，它将修复每个看起来乱码的UTF-8字符串。

用法:

require_once('Encoding.php');
use \ForceUTF8\Encoding;  // It's namespaced now.

$utf8_string = Encoding::fixUTF8($garbled_utf8_string);

例子:

echo Encoding::fixUTF8("Fédération Camerounaise de Football");
echo Encoding::fixUTF8("Fédération Camerounaise de Football");
echo Encoding::fixUTF8("FÃÂédÃÂération Camerounaise de Football");
echo Encoding::fixUTF8("Fédération Camerounaise de Football");

将输出:

Fédération Camerounaise de Football
Fédération Camerounaise de Football
Fédération Camerounaise de Football
Fédération Camerounaise de Football

我在一个名为Encoding的类上将函数(forceeutf8)转换为一系列静态函数。新函数是Encoding::toUTF8()。

这个备备单列出了PHP中与UTF-8处理相关的一些常见注意事项: http://developer.loftdigital.com/blog/php-utf-8-cheatsheet

这个函数在字符串中检测多字节字符也可能是有帮助的(来源):

function detectUTF8($string) { return preg_match('%(?: [\xC2-\xDF][\x80-\xBF] # non-overlong 2-byte |\xE0[\xA0-\xBF][\x80-\xBF] # excluding overlongs |[\xE1-\xEC\xEE\xEF][\x80-\xBF]{2} # straight 3-byte |\xED[\x80-\x9F][\x80-\xBF] # excluding surrogates |\xF0[\x90-\xBF][\x80-\xBF]{2} # planes 1-3 |[\xF1-\xF3][\x80-\xBF]{3} # planes 4-15 |\xF4[\x80-\x8F][\x80-\xBF]{2} # plane 16 )+%xs', $string); }
