Having *yet > another* "UTF-8" extension is not a long term solution. Although, it aims to replace existing mbstring, I can agree with your opinion. If PHP is going to support Unicode fully, i.e. have encoding parameter/property, then it would be good solution. Just one quick question, what do you think about encoding parameter/property? Functions like fgetcsv() needs to specify encoding, but it seems many people against it. Regards, -- Yasuo Ohgaki yohgaki@ohgaki.net
