Anyone have a neat trick on how to convert a number of php and html files from UTF-8 to ISO-8859-1 in linux (Ubuntu)?

byte[] utf8 = ... byte[] latin1 = new String(utf8, "UTF-8"). getBytes("ISO-8859-1"); You can exercise more control by using the lower-level Charset APIs. For example, you can raise an exception when an un-encodable character is found, or use a different character for replacement text.
UTF-8 is a multibyte encoding that can represent any Unicode character. ISO 8859-1 is a single-byte encoding that can represent the first 256 Unicode characters. Both encode ASCII exactly the same way.
Ubuntu has recode
$ sudo apt-get install recode
$ recode UTF-8..latin1 *.php
Recursively, thanks to Ted Dziuba:
$ find . -name "*.php" -exec recode UTF-8..latin1 {} \;
