how to html decode this text \n\tooooooooooooooooooooooo<\/p>\n ?

i used ckeditor to edit the text and then it was saved in mysql database like this \n\tooooooooooooooooooooooo<\/p>\n

now i am using rest api to send it to an ipad app
i did use these to functions below but its not working:

$row['htmlmb']=mb_convert_encoding($row['descriptive'], "UTF-8", "HTML-ENTITIES");
$row['htmldec']=htmlspecialchars($row['descriptive']);

Code:
function get_myprojects_admin($status,$user_id){

        $images_config = $this->config->item('images');

        $result=false;                     

 $this->db->where('clientUID',$user_id); 

        $this->db->where('status',$status);

        $this->db->order_by('project.dateCreation', 'DESC'); 

 $query = $this->db->get('project');

        if ($query->num_rows() > 0) {

            foreach ($query->result_array() as $row) {

                $images_thumb_dir=$images_config['upload_path'].$user_id.'/'.$row['id'].'/avatar/thumbs/';

                $row['url']=base_url().'get_image.php?i='.$images_thumb_dir.$row['avatar'];

                $row['htmlmb']=mb_convert_encoding($row['descriptive'], "UTF-8", "HTML-ENTITIES");

                $row['htmldec']=htmlspecialchars($row['descriptive']);

                $result[] = $row;

            }

        }

        return $result;

    }
