Why removing it? You need to think how these characters got there in first place. What if you just misinterpreted the data presented in one of the UTFs? You got my big down-vote for huge technology abuse and the attempt to find a dirty work-around instead of solving the problem.

echo replaceAccents($val); 

function replaceAccents($str)

Solution 2

Use a regular expression replace, with acceptable characters in an exclude-these form of a match:

http://php.net/manual/en/function.preg-replace.php[^]

replace undesired chars with empty string, space, or whatever.

you can try this method also it will be much helpful

To remove â character from string

mysqli_set_charset($con,"utf8");

$price = "â‚¹ 250.00";

$price2 = preg_replace('/[^(\x20-\x7F)]*/','', $price);

Result : 250.00

this helps to remove character like â€˜ €™ " from string.

Thanks
