Then we try to get the filename without extension using PATHINFO_FILENAME. PHP will trim the first character from the resulting string. Test script: --------------- <?php $fileName = 'ÅfileÅnameÅ.docx'; // outputs "fileÅnameÅ" - missing starting character echo pathinfo($fileName, PATHINFO_FILENAME) . "\n"; Expected result: ---------------- ÅfileÅnameÅ Actual result: -------------- fileÅnameÅ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=78817&edit=1
