how to decode something that is encoded with encodeUri()

If you encode something using javascript's encodeURI() method, how do yo get the decoded string in PHP?

I have string name= "salman mahmood" which I'm sending via POST message to my server. When I alert() the string at client side it gives me "salman%20mahmood" after encoding. At server side I'm decoding it using urldecode() but the result I'm getting is "salman". Do I need a different method to decode? the rawurldecode isnt working either; I just need the value with the space restored back.

Edit: thanks every one for the suggestions but im writing the code as follows and it still doesnt work!!

<input type="text" id="chapterNumber" value=<?php echo rawurldecode("chapter%20Two"); ?> disabled="disabled">

it only prints "chapter"

Put it into quotes ' '

<input type="text" id="chapterNumber" value='<?php echo rawurldecode("chapter%20Two"); ?>'disabled="disabled">
