It works if I disable overloading. When I'm working with lobs (binary data in general) under this configuration I use mb_strlen($str, 'ASCII') instead of strlen($str). Otherwise, the variable would be treated as string and any unicode escape sequence would generate an error. Maybe a function called something like 'bytecount' could help to avoid this situation. Thanks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-11-26 20:25:17] iliaa@php.net If you change mbstring.func_overload=6 to mbstring.func_overload=0, does the problem go away? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-11-26 20:24:47] tony2001@php.net Assigned to the maintainer. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
