I wasn't saying I was /telling/ it to go from UTF-8 to ASCII. I was
saying it /was/ going from UTF-8 to ASCII, despite the fact that I was
telling it to go from UTF-8 to UTF-8.
And as noted previously in this thread, it turned out to be because
mb_detect_encoding was /mistakenly/ detecting it

And the culprit is that mb_detect_order() wasn't set up to handle
ISO-8859-1. It was "ASCII, UTF-8". Changing it to "ASCII, UTF-8,
ISO-8859-1" makes everything work as expected.

OK, now the problem seems to be not that mb_convert_encoding is encoding
incorrectly, it's that mb_detect_encoding is detecting incorrectly.
It's claiming that the raw string as received from the browser is UTF-8,
where in reality it seems to be ISO-8859-1. Sample code:

A little additional info: The "ASCII to ASCII" case for "Minnie=Mouse"
is merely because the UTF-8 encoding for "Mouse" is the same as the
ASCII encoding for "Mouse", and mb_detect_encoding is matching on ASCII
before UTF-8. So that's not an issue.
But, the "UTF-8 to ASCII" case for "Minnie=M
