note 58834 added to function.strlen

Why not: function b_strlen($str){ $ret = 0; for($i = 0; $i < strlen($str); $i++){ if( (ord($str{$i}) >= 0 && ord($str{$i}) <= 127) || ord($str{$i}) >= 192 ) $ret++; } return $ret; } It's easier I think... ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.strlen.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+58834 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+58834&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+58834&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+58834&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+58834&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: non-english -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+58834&report=yes&reason=non-english Delete: already in docs -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+58834&report=yes&reason=already+in+docs Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+58834&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+58834&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
