This is a PHP library for conversion Emoji from some mobile phones (iOS & Android) to html code and back

Based on php-emoji by Cal Henderson

USAGE

<?php
    include('Emoji.class.php');
    # or use some AutoLoader which you like

    # when you recieve text from a mobile device, convert it
    # to the HTML (through Unified, Emoji or Unified -> Unified -> HTML)

    $text = Emoji::emoji_to_html($text);

    # when sending data back to mobile devices, you can
    # convert back to Unified format ( HTML -> Unified )

    $text = Emoji::html_to_emoji($text);
?>

When using the HTML format, you'll also need to include the emoji.css file, which points to the emoji.png image. These images come from the gemoji project and cover all current codepoints.

Also i'm add another way of conversion - Emoji to HTML-Entity (like 🌺) and back for use with downloadable web-font from emojisymbols.com. This way is best way for edit (or delete, khe-khe) Emoji in textarea on desktop browsers
