I will make Screend at hf dot webex dot com's comment more clear and understandable.

strrev only works for singlebyte character-sets. Multibytes charactersets are not compatibles with strrev.

US-ASCII and ISO-8859-* are compatible with strrev, however BIG5, SJIS, UTF-8 aren't.

There's no mb_strrev function in PHP, so you can't strrev() a multibyte string. Try to convert it to something else with iconv() if it can be represented in a singlebyte character set. --was-- I will make Screend at hf dot webex dot com's comment more clear and understandable. strrev only works for singlebyte character-sets.

Despite what you can think, ISO-8859-15 *is* multibyte (the euro symbol - € - is coded on two bytes). There's no mb_strrev function in PHP, so you can't strrev() a multibyte string.
