title: php file_get_contents().. doesn't handle special characters?
body: <p>I've got an HTML file with special characters such as:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>AT&amp;T™ Official Site</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>When I use file_get_contents() on the file and echo the contents, I get something like this:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>AT&amp;T\u00e2\u0084\u00a2 Official Site</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>How can I convert the latter to the former? </p>
  
  <p>This is all I'm running: </p>
  
  <pre><code>echo file_get_contents("http://www.google.com/uds/GafsAds?q=att&amp;hl=en&amp;ad=w1&amp;source=gcsc&amp;qid=127c30648069871ea");
  </code></pre>
