ID: 41588 User updated by: spam02 at pornel dot net Reported By: spam02 at pornel dot net Status: Open Bug Type: PCRE related Operating System: * -PHP Version: 4CVS-2007-06-04 (snap) +PHP Version: 6.0.0-dev (20070509) New Comment: (fixed php version) Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-06-04 13:04:43] spam02 at pornel dot net Description: ------------ preg_match() with 'u' modifier is supposed to use UTF-8, but this switch doesn't affect offset parameter, which is always in bytes. This gotcha at least deserves to be documented, although consistent unicode support would be even better. Reproduce code: --------------- <?php preg_match('/./u',urldecode('%C2%AE').'NY',$m,NULL,2); echo $m[0]; Expected result: ---------------- Y Actual result: -------------- N ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=41588&edit=1
