note 90581 added to function.substr

For getting a substring of UTF-8 characters, I highly recommend mb_substr <?php $utf8string = "cakeæøå"; echo substr($utf8string,0,5); // output cake# echo mb_substr($utf8string,0,5,'UTF-8'); //output cakeæ ?> ---- Server IP: 62.73.196.231 Probable Submitter: 80.239.26.210 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.substr.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/90581 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/90581/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/90581/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/90581/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/90581/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/90581/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/90581/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/90581 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/90581 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
