Is it possible extend utf8_decode function with charset iso-8859-15(latin 9) version?

Currently utf8_decode uses iso-8859-1
Main reason of need is we need €(EUR) char in conversions

It can be done second optional parameter.
string utf8_decode ( string $data [] [, string $out_charset])

It's rather unlikely that utf8_decode() will be enhanced, because
there are already mb_convert_encoding() and iconv().

Can this request be closed?

While there is already function that handle diffirent charsets, this can be closed.

Maybe beter change this function is silently extend to iso-8859-15 charset, so that iso-8859-15 charset work in iso-8859-1 charsets. If i understooded, this was method in many software when iso-8859-15 charset released.

That's not possible. The two charsets differ at 8 code points so there's no way to combine them. And even if they could be, it would be crazy to have a string be in two encodings simultaneously.
