Do you know the usage of the command, ideally it would be a drop-in replacement for the mb_convert_encoding commands -- it'll be one of the first commands you run in the script.
What we typically do when debugging this sort of thing is to write the output data to a text file (using php file commands within the authentication script) as there is no easy way to simply echo the information to the console when using special characters. This may help by first printing the raw data we send, then print the data as you've converted it, and finally print the raw data stored in the database for comparison to gauge your progress.

Accordingly, is the opposite of unhtmlspecialchars() just htmlspecialchars()?
