note 110204 added to ref.mbstring

My understanding is that str_replace may not work as required with multibyte strings. Example: If you have a 2 byte encoding, then representing the bytes in hex, if you have the 3 character string: 35 DF DF 6A DF DF and you do the character replacement: DF DF ~> DF 42 with str_replace you get: 35 DF 42 6A DF 42 instead of: 35 DF DF 6A DF 42 For this reason you may wish to consider using another option. ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.199 Probable Submitter: 86.182.183.171 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.mbstring.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/110204 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/110204/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/110204/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/110204/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/110204/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/110204/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/110204/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/110204 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/110204 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
