See the changelog from http://php.net/number_format: 5.4.0 This function now supports multiple bytes in dec_point and thousands_sep. Only the first byte of each separator was used in older versions. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2013-03-14 01:26:36] mwalker at wikimedia dot org Description: ------------ I have a UTF-8 PHP file that initializes an array of characters depending on the locale. Some of these are multibyte strings. When using the number_format() function with $dec_point, or $thousands_sep set with one of these multibyte entries the returned result contains only the first byte of the string (which is only a partial code point.) Test script: --------------- $foo = "\xC2\xA0"; $result = number_format(1.23, $foo, $foo); Expected result: ---------------- $result to contain "\x31\xC2\xA0\x32\x33" Actual result: -------------- $result seems to contain "\x31\xC2\x32\x33" ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=64424&edit=1
