Regarding the note above from info at saudiabm dot com:
Using strtolower or strtoupper to convert non-ascii charachters like Arabic and etc requires
setlocale LC_CTYPE first http://www.php.net/setlocale
echo strtolower('åÐå ÇáÚÈÇÑÉ ÓÊÙåÑ ÈÔßá ÛíÑ ÕÍíÍ'); // this will
look messy
setlocale(LC_CTYPE, 'ar_SA'); // Using arabic Saudi char set
echo strtolower('åÐå ÇáÚÈÇÑÉ ÔÊÙåÑ ÈÔßá ÕÍíÍ'); // this will look
fine
on windows you can use setlocale(LC_CTYPE, 'arabic');
