Are there any best practices for handling special characters like \u00A0 in PHP when working with browser-specific functions?

Special characters like \u00A0 (non-breaking space) can cause issues when working with browser-specific functions in PHP. To handle these special characters, you can use the `html_entity_decode()` function to convert them into their corresponding HTML entities. This will ensure that the special characters are displayed correctly in the browser.

$string_with_special_characters = '\u00A0Hello\u00A0World\u00A0';
$decoded_string = html_entity_decode($string_with_special_characters);
echo $decoded_string;
