#48230 [Bgs]: xml_utf8_decode incorrectly decode

ID: 48230 Updated by: derick@php.net Reported By: root at 80sec dot com Status: Bogus Bug Type: XML related Operating System: Linux/win PHP Version: 5.2.9 New Comment: We know it is not, but the function only works on proper UTF-8 like is documented. So there is no bug here, the bug is on your code calling this function. You can't require functions to work like they're not meant to work—but that's what you're asking here.
