I think mbstring is better, although this module also supports single-byte encoding like ISO-8859-X. Some people might say 'wchar' is better choise, because this module converts string to wide character internally. If someone want to add some other encoding support, he should add mbfilter_xx.c mbfilter_xx.h where xx means some specific language like ja (japanese). Anyway, because I am not original author of this module, I must discuss to Mr. Tsukada ,the original author of jstring about renaming the module. -- ---------------------------------------------------------- Rui Hirokawa <louis@cityfujisawa.ne.jp> maintainer of japanese PHP manual <hirokawa@php.net>
