Utf16 to Utf8 .js

//Simple way:
var utf8 = unescape(encodeURIComponent(utf16_str));

//Or (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/18729405/how-to-convert-utf8-string-to-byte-array):
function toUTF8Array(str) {

        if (charcode < 0x80) utf8.push(charcode);
        else if (charcode < 0x800) {
            utf8.push(0xc0 | (charcode >> 6), 
                      0x80 | (charcode & 0x3f));
        }
