mb_strwidth — Return width of string
Returns the width of string str.
Multi-byte characters are usually twice the width of single byte characters.
Chars | Width |
---|---|
U+0000 - U+0019 | 0 |
U+0020 - U+1FFF | 1 |
U+2000 - U+FF60 | 2 |
U+FF61 - U+FF9F | 1 |
U+FFA0 - | 2 |
The string being decoded.
Der encoding Parameter legt das Zeichenencoding fest. Wird er nicht übergeben so wird das interne Zeichenencoding genutzt.
The width of string str.
to convert a multi-byte character into hex strings:
$b = "現,市民派利市的習慣亦有所改變";
printf("length of string: %d <br>", mb_strlen($b, 'UTF-8'));
for ($i=0; $i < mb_strlen($b, 'UTF-8'); $i++){
$ch = mb_substr($b, $i, 1, 'UTF-8');
$chlen = mb_strwidth($ch, 'UTF-8');
$hexs = '';
for ($j=0; $j < $chlen; $j++)
$hexs = $hexs . sprintf("%x", ord($ch[$j]));
printf ("width=%d => '%s' |hex=%s<br>", $chlen, $ch, $hexs );
}
Note: mb_strwidth is NOT returning bytes. It's returning the width of monotype characters. (In some languages, some characters will take up 2 character widths if displayed in monotype.)
