note 55198 added to function.convert-cyr-string

Praising other people for their efforts to write a convenient UTF8 to Win-1251 functions may I mention that, since str_replace allows arrays as parameters, the function may be rewritten in a slightly efficient way (moreover, the array generated may be stored for performance improvement): <?php function Encode ( $str, $type ) { // $type: // 'w' - encodes from UTF to win // 'u' - encodes from win to UTF static $conv=''; if (!is_array ( $conv )) { $conv=array (); for ( $x=128; $x <=143; $x++ ) { $conv['utf'][]=chr(209).chr($x); $conv['win'][]=chr($x+112); } for ( $x=144; $x <=191; $x++ ) { $conv['utf'][]=chr(208).chr($x); $conv['win'][]=chr($x+48); } $conv['utf'][]=chr(208).chr(129); $conv['win'][]=chr(168); $conv['utf'][]=chr(209).chr(145); $conv['win'][]=chr(184); } if ( $type=='w' ) return str_replace ( $conv['utf'], $conv['win'], $str ); elseif ( $type=='u' ) return str_replace ( $conv['win'], $conv['utf'], $str ); else return $str; } ?> ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.convert-cyr-string.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+55198 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55198&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55198&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55198&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55198&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: non-english -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55198&report=yes&reason=non-english Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55198&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+55198&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
