I use an Ajax call to receive a response in hebrew. The results come from a different site and are `windows-1255` encoded. My page is `UTF-8`.
the response looks like this: 

```
îéãò ìî÷áì  áæ÷ äçáøä äéùøàìéú  àéï 

```

I found this website: <http://kanjidict.stc.cx/recode.php>
using windows-1255 to UTF-8 (+mark the last checkbox) and the result is perfect.
Question is how do I do that on PHP ?

Everything I do results in garbage. 

```
$data = 'îéãò ìî÷áì  áæ÷ äçáøä äéùøàìéú àéï  ';
echo mb_detect_encoding($data);

```

results in `UTF-8` (maybe it really is UTF-8, as my php file is utf-8)

**I actually need this result:**

```
מידע למקבל  בזק החברה הישראלית אין 

```

If I try iconv:

```
echo iconv("WINDOWS-1255", "UTF-8", "îéãò ìî÷áì  áæ÷ äçáøä äéùøàìéú àéï  ");

```

I get this:

```
ֳ®ֳ©ֳ£ֳ² ֳ¬ֳ®ֳ·ֳ¡ֳ¬ ֳ¡ֳ¦ֳ· ֳ₪ֳ§ֳ¡ֳ¸ֳ₪ ֳ₪ֳ©ֳ¹ֳ¸ֳ ֳ¬ֳ©ֳ÷ ֳ ֳ©ֳ¯ 

```

What is going on? How can I get the hebrew result?

Thanks!!
