Have been playing around a bit with this code, but I can't get it to work with international characters… For example, if I feed my function:

    function split_bokid($bokid)
    {
        if  (preg_match('/^([a-zåäö]{2,3})([0-9]{4,5}(\-[0-9]{1,2}){0,1})$/ i',$bokid,$m='')) {
            return $m;
        }
        else
        {
            return false;
        }
    }

returns, with the following code:

    $test = split_bokid("ääö123");

I assume you mean: $test = split_bokid("ääö12345");

    echo $test[1];
    echo $test[2];

the values:

    ŠŠš
     12345

So, is there any way I can set the encoding on the incoming values, which will come from url's and databases, so that they don't fuck up?

I don't know. It works fine on my computer. The letters display correctly on the command line and even in Mozilla.
