get the string octet-size, when mbstring.func_overload is set to 2 : <?php function str_sizeof($string) { return count(preg_split(".", $string)) - 1 ; } ?> answering to peter albertsson, once you got your data octet-size, you can access each octet with something $string[0] ... $string[$size-1], since the [ operator doesn't complies with multibytes strings. ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.mbstring.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+55832 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55832&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55832&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55832&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55832&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: non-english -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55832&report=yes&reason=non-english Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+55832&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+55832&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
