Urldecode like decodeURIComponent

PHP
1
  1. With the function decodeURIComponent in JavaScript

Decoding this
%E2%80%9C
will get the following
“

<script type="text/javascript">
function decode() {
	var obj = document.getElementById('dencoder');
	var encoded = obj.value;
	obj.value = decodeURIComponent(encoded.replace(/\\+/g,  " "));
}
</script>

<textarea cols="80" rows="20" id="dencoder"></textarea>
<div>
<input type="button" onclick="decode()" value="Decode">
</div>

Working!

  1. PHP not working
    However, I am not able to decode it in PHP.
    Already tried…

echo ord(utf8_decode(urldecode("%E2%80%9D"))); 
echo "<br>";
echo ord(urldecode("%E2%80%9D")); 
echo "<br>";
// not getting this value
echo ord('“');

Any idea to decode %E2%80%9D in php and get this char “ ?
