utf8_decode — Konvertiert eine als UTF-8 kodierte ISO-8859-1-Zeichenkette in eine einfache ISO-8859-1-Zeichenkette
Diese Funktion dekodiert Daten (data), die in UTF-8 zu sein scheinen, in ISO-8859-1.
Eine UTF-8-kodierte Zeichenkette.
Gibt die ISO-8859-1-Übersetzung von data zurück.
Got around to some very basic testing of my modified UTF-8 to HTML Entities function. Apparently preg_replace doesn't like null-characters in its patterns. That was the only glaring error (actually a warning, but it caused the returned string to be empty) I've encountered. That's been fixed. Also, support for four-byte UTF-8 sequences has been added. Finally, arithmetic operators have been replaced with bitwise operators, which should make the conversion slightly faster and less prone to wild results given invalid input — even though the invalid input should have been filtered out already.
<?PHP
function UTF8ToEntities ($string) {
/* note: apply htmlspecialchars if desired /before/ applying this function
/* Only do the slow convert if there are 8-bit characters */
/* avoid using 0xA0 (\240) in ereg ranges. RH73 does not like that */
if (! ereg("[\200-\237]", $string) and ! ereg("[\241-\377]", $string))
return $string;
// reject too-short sequences
$string = preg_replace("/[\302-\375]([\001-\177])/", "�\\1", $string);
$string = preg_replace("/[\340-\375].([\001-\177])/", "�\\1", $string);
$string = preg_replace("/[\360-\375]..([\001-\177])/", "�\\1", $string);
$string = preg_replace("/[\370-\375]...([\001-\177])/", "�\\1", $string);
$string = preg_replace("/[\374-\375]....([\001-\177])/", "�\\1", $string);
// reject illegal bytes & sequences
// 2-byte characters in ASCII range
$string = preg_replace("/[\300-\301]./", "�", $string);

$string = preg_replace("/[\376-\377]/", "�", $string);
// reject consecutive start-bytes
$string = preg_replace("/[\302-\364]{2,}/", "�", $string);
// decode four byte unicode characters
$string = preg_replace(
"/([\360-\364])([\200-\277])([\200-\277])([\200-\277])/e",
"'&#'.((ord('\\1')&7)<<18 | (ord('\\2')&63)<<12 |" .

Warning: only a bit of accidental testing was done with invalid UTF-8 input, and the result wasn't closely analyzed. But valid UTF-8 doesn't seem to be mangled at all.
In jQuery AJAX requests, latin2 specific chars have 2B length, and common chars have 1B length.
PHP functions for UTF8->latin2 conversion didn't work for me, so I wrote this simple function
to convert from jQuery AJAX encoding to ISO-8859-2 (latin2).
<?php
function jquery2iso($in)
{
$CONV = array();
$CONV['c4']['85'] = 'ą';
$CONV['c4']['84'] = 'Ą';
$CONV['c4']['87'] = 'ć';
$CONV['c4']['86'] = 'Ć';
$CONV['c4']['99'] = 'ę';
$CONV['c4']['98'] = 'Ę';
$CONV['c5']['82'] = 'ł';
$CONV['c5']['81'] = 'Ł';
$CONV['c4']['84'] = 'ń';
$CONV['c4']['83'] = 'Ń';
$CONV['c3']['b3'] = 'ó';
$CONV['c3']['93'] = 'Ó';
$CONV['c5']['9b'] = 'ś';
$CONV['c5']['9a'] = 'Ś';
$CONV['c5']['ba'] = 'ź';
$CONV['c5']['b9'] = 'Ź';
$CONV['c5']['bc'] = 'ż';
$CONV['c5']['bb'] = 'Ż';
$i=0;
$out = '';
while($i<strlen($in))
{
if(array_key_exists(bin2hex($in[$i]), $CONV))
{
$out .= $CONV[bin2hex($in[$i])][bin2hex($in[$i+1])];
$i += 2;
}
else
{
$out .= $in[$i];
$i += 1;
}
}
return $out;
}
?>
a simple function to convert encoding that appears mixed.
<?php
$trans = new Latin1UTF8();
$mixed = "MIXED TEXT INPUT";
print "Original: ".$mixed;
print "Latin1: ".$trans->mixed_to_latin1($mixed);
print "UTF-8: ".$trans->mixed_to_utf8($mixed);
class Latin1UTF8 {
private $latin1_to_utf8;
private $utf8_to_latin1;
public function __construct() {
for($i=32; $i<=255; $i++) {
$this->latin1_to_utf8[chr($i)] = utf8_encode(chr($i));
$this->utf8_to_latin1[utf8_encode(chr($i))] = chr($i);
}
}
public function mixed_to_latin1($text) {
foreach( $this->utf8_to_latin1 as $key => $val ) {
$text = str_replace($key, $val, $text);
}
return $text;
}
public function mixed_to_utf8($text) {
return utf8_encode($this->mixed_to_latin1($text));
}
}
?>
In addition to Blackbit's note below, here's my shot at converting UTF-8 strings to HTML entities.
<?php $encoded = preg_replace('/([\200-\277])/e', "'&#'.(ord('\\1')).';'", $utf8str); ?>
This code converts one byte UTF-8 to HTML entities while below you'll find conversions for two byte and three byte UTF-8.
If you simply need to decode a previously numerically escaped string (for example "This is \xC3encoded\xAF - now what?") into its literal (unencoded) representation:
<?php
preg_replace("#(\\\x[0-9A-F]{2})#e", "chr(hexdec('\\1'))", $string);
?>
PS: note the miraculous escaping of \x in the regex as \\\x (!)
I've modified above utf8_array_decode to utf8_array_encode. The main difference is the later encodes a multi-dimension array.
Here goes the code:
<?php
function utf8_array_encode($input)
{
$return = array();
foreach ($input as $key => $val)
{
if( is_array($val) )
{
$return[$key] = utf8_array_encode($val);
}
else
{
$return[$key] = utf8_encode($val);
}
}
return $return;
}
?>
Enjoy it!

If you running Gentoo Linux and encounter problems with some PHP5 applications saying:
Call to undefined function: utf8_decode()
Try reemerge PHP4 with 'xml' flag enabled.
IMPORTANT: when converting UTF8 data that contains the EURO sign DON'T USE utf_decode function.
utf_decode converts the data into ISO-8859-1 charset. But ISO-8859-1 charset does not contain the EURO sign, therefor the EURO sign will be converted into a question mark character '?'
In order to convert properly UTF8 data with EURO sign you must use:
iconv("UTF-8", "CP1252", $data)
Squirrelmail contains a nice function in the sources to convert unicode to entities:
<?php
function charset_decode_utf_8 ($string) {
/* Only do the slow convert if there are 8-bit characters */
/* avoid using 0xA0 (\240) in ereg ranges. RH73 does not like that */
if (! ereg("[\200-\237]", $string) and ! ereg("[\241-\377]", $string))
return $string;
// decode three byte unicode characters
$string = preg_replace("/([\340-\357])([\200-\277])([\200-\277])/e", \
"'&#'.((ord('\\1')-224)*4096 + (ord('\\2')-128)*64 + (ord('\\3')-128)).';'", \
$string);
// decode two byte unicode characters
$string = preg_replace("/([\300-\337])([\200-\277])/e", \
"'&#'.((ord('\\1')-192)*64+(ord('\\2')-128)).';'", \
$string);
return $string;
}
?>
EY! the bug is not in the function 'utf8_decode'. The bug is in the function 'mb_detect_encoding'. If you put a word with a special char at the end like this 'accentué', that will lead to a wrong result (UTF-8) but if you put another char at the end like this 'accentuée' you will get it right. So you should always add a ISO-8859-1 character to your string for this check. My advise is to use a blank space.
I´ve tried it and it works!
function ISO_convert($array)
{
$array_temp = array();
foreach($array as $name => $value)
{
if(is_array($value))
$array_temp[(mb_detect_encoding($name." ",'UTF-8,ISO-8859-1') == 'UTF-8' ? utf8_decode($name) : $name )] = ISO_convert($value);
else
$array_temp[(mb_detect_encoding($name." ",'UTF-8,ISO-8859-1') == 'UTF-8' ? utf8_decode($name) : $name )] = (mb_detect_encoding($value." ",'UTF-8,ISO-8859-1') == 'UTF-8' ? utf8_decode($value) : $value );
}
return $array_temp;
}
[EDITED BY cataphract AT php DOT net - NOTE: This has been fixed
in PHP 5.3.4 and 5.2.15.]
Warning!
This function contains a possible security risk when you try to convert escaped strings (see addslashes() and related functions).
It reacts nasty on broken multibyte sequences. In UTF-8, follow-up bytes ALWAYS have the binary pattern 10xxxxxx, but this fact is not handled by utf8_decode in the way you would expect: If you pass a start byte (110xxxxx, 1110xxxx, 11110xxx - or even invalid sequences like 11111100), followed by one or more non-multibyte chars (0xxxxxxx), the start sequence "char" will be replaced by '?' (0x3F) and up to three following chars will disappear even if they are single-byte-chars (0xxxxxxx). So if you escape a string with a typical escape char like backslash, you would expect that your escaping would always survive a call to utf8decode because the escape char is in the assumed safe ascii range 0-127, but that is NOT the case!
Try things like utf8_decode("test: ü\\\"123456") to check it out.
To avoid problems take care that string-escaping always is the last step of data manipulation when you depend on leak-proof escaping.
To decode the values and the keys, i think this would work
function utf8_array_decode($input){
$return = array();
foreach ($input as $key => $val) {
$k = utf8_decode($key);
$return[$k] = utf8_decode($val);
}
return $return;
}
I didn't find an utf8_array_decode. This one only decodes the values, not the keys.
function utf8_array_decode($input){
foreach ($input as $key => $val) {
$input[$key] = utf8_decode($val);
}
return $input;
}
If you don't know exactly, how many times your string is encoded, you can use this function:
<?php
function _utf8_decode($string)
{
$tmp = $string;
$count = 0;
while (mb_detect_encoding($tmp)=="UTF-8")
{
$tmp = utf8_decode($tmp);
$count++;
}
for ($i = 0; $i < $count-1 ; $i++)
{
$string = utf8_decode($string);
}
return $string;
}
?>
Update to MARC13 function utf2iso()
I'm using it to handle AJAX POST calls.
Despite using
http.setRequestHeader('Content-Type', 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded'; charset='utf-8');
it still code Polish letters using UTF-16
This is only for Polish letters:
<?php
function utf16_2_utf8 ($nowytekst) {
$nowytekst = str_replace('%u0104','Ą',$nowytekst); //Ą
$nowytekst = str_replace('%u0106','Ć',$nowytekst); //Ć
$nowytekst = str_replace('%u0118','Ę',$nowytekst); //Ę
$nowytekst = str_replace('%u0141','Ł',$nowytekst); //Ł
$nowytekst = str_replace('%u0143','Ń',$nowytekst); //Ń
$nowytekst = str_replace('%u00D3','Ó',$nowytekst); //Ó
$nowytekst = str_replace('%u015A','Ś',$nowytekst); //Ś
$nowytekst = str_replace('%u0179','Ź',$nowytekst); //Ź
$nowytekst = str_replace('%u017B','Ż',$nowytekst); //Ż
$nowytekst = str_replace('%u0105','ą',$nowytekst); //ą
$nowytekst = str_replace('%u0107','ć',$nowytekst); //ć
$nowytekst = str_replace('%u0119','ę',$nowytekst); //ę
$nowytekst = str_replace('%u0142','ł',$nowytekst); //ł
$nowytekst = str_replace('%u0144','ń',$nowytekst); //ń
$nowytekst = str_replace('%u00F3','ó',$nowytekst); //ó
$nowytekst = str_replace('%u015B','ś',$nowytekst); //ś
$nowytekst = str_replace('%u017A','ź',$nowytekst); //ź
$nowytekst = str_replace('%u017C','ż',$nowytekst); //ż
return ($nowytekst);
}
?>
Everything goes smooth, but it doesn't change '%u00D3','Ó' and '%u00F3','ó'. I dont have idea what to do with that.
Remember! File must be saved in UTF-8 coding.
Known problem with Byte Order Mark (BOM) and header() in pages of a site.
For example at sending headings or to a dynamic conclusion in other coding distinct from UTF-8 by means of XSLT (<xsl:output encoding="windows-1251"/>).
To clean all symbols BOM from the text of page:
1. exclude BOM from the main file;
2. write down function of a return call for the buffer
<?php
header('content-type: text/html; charset: utf-8');
ob_start('ob');
function ob($buffer)
{
return str_replace("\xef\xbb\xbf", '', $buffer);
}
?>
it will exclude BOM from a code of the connected files;
3. do not experience for BOM in connected files;
4. be pleased.
A better way to convert would be to use iconv, see http://www.php.net/iconv -- example:
<?php
$myUnicodeString = "Åäö";
echo iconv("UTF-8", "ISO-8859-1", $myUnicodeString);
?>
Above would echo out the given variable in ISO-8859-1 encoding, you may replace it with whatever you prefer.
Another solution to the issue of misdisplayed glyphs is to simply send the document as UTF-8, and of course send UTF-8 data:
<?php
# Replace text/html with whatever MIME-type you prefer.
header("Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8");
?>
I did this function to convert data from AJAX call to insert to my database.
It converts UTF-8 from XMLHttpRequest() to ISO-8859-2 that I use in LATIN2 MySQL database.
<?php
function utf2iso($tekst)
{
$nowytekst = str_replace("%u0104","\xA1",$tekst); //Ą
$nowytekst = str_replace("%u0106","\xC6",$nowytekst); //Ć
$nowytekst = str_replace("%u0118","\xCA",$nowytekst); //Ę
$nowytekst = str_replace("%u0141","\xA3",$nowytekst); //Ł
$nowytekst = str_replace("%u0143","\xD1",$nowytekst); //Ń
$nowytekst = str_replace("%u00D3","\xD3",$nowytekst); //Ó
$nowytekst = str_replace("%u015A","\xA6",$nowytekst); //Ś
$nowytekst = str_replace("%u0179","\xAC",$nowytekst); //Ź
$nowytekst = str_replace("%u017B","\xAF",$nowytekst); //Ż
$nowytekst = str_replace("%u0105","\xB1",$nowytekst); //ą
$nowytekst = str_replace("%u0107","\xE6",$nowytekst); //ć
$nowytekst = str_replace("%u0119","\xEA",$nowytekst); //ę
$nowytekst = str_replace("%u0142","\xB3",$nowytekst); //ł
$nowytekst = str_replace("%u0144","\xF1",$nowytekst); //ń
$nowytekst = str_replace("%u00D4","\xF3",$nowytekst); //ó
$nowytekst = str_replace("%u015B","\xB6",$nowytekst); //ś
$nowytekst = str_replace("%u017A","\xBC",$nowytekst); //ź
$nowytekst = str_replace("%u017C","\xBF",$nowytekst); //ż
return ($nowytekst);
}
?>
In my case also the code file that deals with AJAX calls must be in UTF-8 coding.
Following code helped me with mixed (UTF8+ISO-8859-1(x)) encodings. In this case, I have template files made and maintained by designers who do not care about encoding and MySQL data in utf8_binary_ci encoded tables.

Once again about polish letters. If you use fananf's solution, make sure that PHP file is coded with cp1250 or else it won't work. It's quite obvious, however I spent some time before I finally figured that out, so I thought I post it here.
If you running Gentoo Linux and encounter problems with some PHP4 applications saying:
Call to undefined function: utf8_decode()
Try reemerge PHP4 with 'expat' flag enabled.
I searched a lot everywhere to find a suitable function which converts my UTF8 characters to the windows-1250 charset for Polish language, but couldn't find anything :(
Following is a function which does that:
function show_polish ($text) {
$text = str_replace("Ä„", 'Ą', $text); //Ą
$text = str_replace("Ć", 'Ć', $text); //Ć
$text = str_replace("Ę", 'Ę', $text); //Ę
$text = str_replace("Å", 'Ł', $text); //Ł
$text = str_replace("Ń", 'Ń', $text); //Ń
$text = str_replace("Ó", 'Ó', $text); //Ó
$text = str_replace("Åš", 'Ś', $text); //Ś
$text = str_replace("Ź", 'Ź', $text); //Ź
$text = str_replace("Å»", 'Ż', $text); //Ż
$text = str_replace("Ä…", 'ą', $text); //ą
$text = str_replace("ć", 'ć', $text); //ć
$text = str_replace("Ä™", 'ę', $text); //ę
$text = str_replace("Å‚", 'ł', $text); //ł
$text = str_replace("Å„", 'ń', $text); //ń
$text = str_replace("ó", 'ó', $text); //ó
$text = str_replace("Å›", 'ś', $text); //ś
$text = str_replace("ź", 'ź', $text); //ź
$text = str_replace("ż", 'ż', $text); //ż
return $text;
}
You can refer to http://hermes.umcs.lublin.pl/~awmarcz/awm/info/pl-codes.htm
if you want to use HTML hex. code rather than HTML dec. code which I used in my function.
Comment to AJGORS reply from 28-Dec-2006 02:38:
You have used twice "ż" instead of "ź".
Correct code should be:

I noticed that the utf-8 to html functions below are only for 2 byte long codes. Well I wanted 3 byte support (sorry haven't done 4, 5 or 6). Also I noticed the concatination of the character codes did have the hex prefix 0x and so failed with the large 2 byte codes)
<?

$ret = "";
$max = strlen($str);
$last = 0; // keeps the index of the last regular character
for ($i=0; $i<$max; $i++) {
$c = $str{$i};
$c1 = ord($c);
if ($c1>>5 == 6) { // 110x xxxx, 110 prefix for 2 bytes unicode
$ret .= substr($str, $last, $i-$last); // append all the regular characters we've passed
$c1 &= 31; // remove the 3 bit two bytes prefix
$c2 = ord($str{++$i}); // the next byte
$c2 &= 63; // remove the 2 bit trailing byte prefix
$c2 |= (($c1 & 3) << 6); // last 2 bits of c1 become first 2 of c2
$c1 >>= 2; // c1 shifts 2 to the right
$ret .= "&#" . ($c1 * 0x100 + $c2) . ";"; // this is the fastest string concatenation

enhanced UTF8-Decoder
After recognising that UTF8-Decode converts some French Characters to "?" i end with that Function.
The space will be need when a String ends with a converted Char ( a buggy Php Function will fit a /hex00 char at the End )
function utf8dec ( $s_String )
{
$s_String = html_entity_decode(htmlentities($s_String." ", ENT_COMPAT, 'UTF-8'));
return substr($s_String, 0, strlen($s_String)-1);
}
Hope it helps ... cost me a lot of time ...
I found that trying to put Javascript strings into a pre MySQL 4.0 database was creating problems with strange chars in the database. Closer inspection revealed that utf8 is the default character set for Javascript, which cannot be handled by the db. This function was invaluable.
This function I use convert UTF-8 to Thai font (iso-8859-11).
It from iso8859_11toUTF8 function [Suttichai Mesaard-www.ceforce.com] at utf8_encode page.

Jo, EThaiZone.Com
Hello all,
I like to use COOL (nice) URIs, example: http://example.com/try-something
I'm using UTF8 as input, so I have to write a function UTF8toASCII to have nice URI. Here is what I come with:
<?php
function urlize($url) {
$search = array('/[^a-z0-9]/', '/--+/', '/^-+/', '/-+$/' );
$replace = array( '-', '-', '', '');
return preg_replace($search, $replace, utf2ascii($url));
}
function utf2ascii($string) {
$iso88591 = "\\xE0\\xE1\\xE2\\xE3\\xE4\\xE5\\xE6\\xE7";
$iso88591 .= "\\xE8\\xE9\\xEA\\xEB\\xEC\\xED\\xEE\\xEF";
$iso88591 .= "\\xF0\\xF1\\xF2\\xF3\\xF4\\xF5\\xF6\\xF7";
$iso88591 .= "\\xF8\\xF9\\xFA\\xFB\\xFC\\xFD\\xFE\\xFF";
$ascii = "aaaaaaaceeeeiiiidnooooooouuuuyyy";
return strtr(mb_strtolower(utf8_decode($string), 'ISO-8859-1'),$iso88591,$ascii);
}
echo urlize("Fucking ml");
?>
I hope this helps someone.
Adding to below I have a few more MS word characters that need replacing. Found this was required when "fixing" some phpmyadmin export scripts from a live server where MS word characters were all through the content - before importing them back into my local mySQL database.
The code I wrote for this process also does a strpos for any extra "\\xe2\\x80" strings - which are the tell-tale sign of any funny characters I want removed.
Here are my updated arrays()
<?php
$badchr = array(
"\\xe2\\x80\\xa6", // ellipsis
"\\xe2\\x80\\x93", // long dash
"\\xe2\\x80\\x94", // long dash
"\\xe2\\x80\\x98", // single quote opening
"\\xe2\\x80\\x99", // single quote closing
"\\xe2\\x80\\x9c", // double quote opening
"\\xe2\\x80\\x9d", // double quote closing
"\\xe2\\x80\\xa2" // dot used for bullet points
);
$goodchr = array(
'...',
'-',
'-',
'\\'',
'\\'',
'"',
'"',
'*'
);
?>
I've just created this code snippet to improve the user-customizable emails sent by one of my websites.
The goal was to use UTF-8 (Unicode) so that non-english users have all the Unicode benefits, BUT also make life seamless for English (or specifically, English MS-Outlook users). The niggle: Outlook prior to 2003 (?) does not properly detect unicode emails. When "smart quotes" from MS Word were pasted into a rich text area and saved in Unicode, then sent by email to an Outlook user, more often than not, these characters were wrongly rendered as "greek".
So, the following code snippet replaces a few strategic characters into html entities which Outlook XP (and possibly earlier) will render as expected. [Code based on bits of code from previous posts on this and the htmlenties page]
<?php
$badwordchars=array(
"\xe2\x80\x98", // left single quote
"\xe2\x80\x99", // right single quote
"\xe2\x80\x9c", // left double quote
"\xe2\x80\x9d", // right double quote
"\xe2\x80\x94", // em dash
"\xe2\x80\xa6" // elipses
);
$fixedwordchars=array(
"‘",
"’",
'“',
'”',
'—',
'…'
);
$html=str_replace($badwordchars,$fixedwordchars,$html);
?>
I had to tackle a very interesting problem:
I wanted to replace all \xXX in a text by it's letters. Unfortunatelly XX were ASCII and not utf8. I solved my problem that way:
<?php preg_replace ('/\\\\x([0-9a-fA-F]{2})/e', "pack('H*',utf8_decode('\\1'))",$v); ?>
to complete my previous test, here is the summarize with :
- if ($string == utf8_decode($string))
- if ($string == iconv('UTF-8', 'UTF-8', $string)
201 lines are valid UTF8 strings using phpnote regexp
203 lines are valid UTF8 strings using j.dittmer regexp
200 lines are valid UTF8 strings using fhoech regexp
239 lines are valid UTF8 strings using using mb_detect_encoding
203 lines are valid UTF 8 strings using using utf8_decode
224 lines are valid UTF 8strings using using iconv
If we trust the file used for this test, no need to use a regexp, use XML::utf8_decode() to test your strings, you get the same detection chance as the three regexp tested, and XML Parser extension is almost always available, unlike Iconv and Multibyte String functions.
In response to fhoech (22-Sep-2005 11:55), I just tried a simultaneous test with the file UTF-8-test.txt using your regexp, 'j dot dittmer' (20-Sep-2005 06:30) regexp (message #56962), `php-note-2005` (17-Feb-2005 08:57) regexp in his message on `mb-detect-encoding` page (http://us3.php.net/manual/en/function.mb-detect-encoding.php#50087) who is using a regexp from the W3C (http://w3.org/International/questions/qa-forms-utf-8.html), and PHP mb_detect_encoding function.
Here are a summarize of the results :
201 lines are valid UTF8 strings using phpnote regexp
203 lines are valid UTF8 strings using j.dittmer regexp
200 lines are valid UTF8 strings using fhoech regexp
239 lines are valid UTF8 strings using using mb_detect_encoding
Here are the lines with differences (left to right, phpnote, j.dittmer and fhoech) :
Line #70 : NOT UTF8|IS UTF8!|IS UTF8! :2.1.1 1 byte (U-00000000): ""
Line #79 : NOT UTF8|IS UTF8!|IS UTF8! :2.2.1 1 byte (U-0000007F): ""
Line #81 : IS UTF8!|IS UTF8!|NOT UTF8 :2.2.3 3 bytes (U-0000FFFF): "" |
Line #267 : IS UTF8!|IS UTF8!|NOT UTF8 :5.3.1 U+FFFE = ef bf be = "" |
Line #268 : IS UTF8!|IS UTF8!|NOT UTF8 :5.3.2 U+FFFF = ef bf bf = "" |
Interesting is that you said that your regexp corrected j.dittmer regexp that failed on 5.3 section, but it my test I have the opposite result ?!
I ran this test on windows XP with PHP 4.3.11dev. Maybe these differences come from operating system, or PHP version.
For mb_detect_encoding I used the command :
mb_detect_encoding($line, 'UTF-8, ISO-8859-1, ASCII');
Sorry, I had a typo in my last comment. Corrected regexp:
^([\\x00-\\x7f]|
[\\xc2-\\xdf][\\x80-\\xbf]|
\\xe0[\\xa0-\\xbf][\\x80-\\xbf]|
[\\xe1-\\xec][\\x80-\\xbf]{2}|
\\xed[\\x80-\\x9f][\\x80-\\xbf]|
\\xef[\\x80-\\xbf][\\x80-\\xbd]|
\\xee[\\x80-\\xbf]{2}|
\xf0[\\x90-\\xbf][\\x80-\\xbf]{2}|
[\\xf1-\\xf3][\\x80-\\xbf]{3}|
\\xf4[\\x80-\\x8f][\\x80-\\xbf]{2})*$
JF Sebastian's regex is almost perfect as far as I'm concerned. I found one error (it failed section 5.3 "Other illegal code positions" from http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/ucs/examples/UTF-8-test.txt) which I corrected as follows:
^([\\x00-\\x7f]|
[\\xc2-\\xdf][\\x80-\\xbf]|
\\xe0[\\xa0-\\xbf][\\x80-\\xbf]|
[\\xe1-\\xec][\\x80-\\xbf]{2}|
\\xed[\\x80-\\x9f][\\x80-\\xbf]|
\\xef[\\x80-\\xbf][\\x80-\\xbc]|
\\xee[\\x80-\\xbf]{2}|
\\xf0[\\x90-\\xbf][\\x80-\\xbf]{2}|
[\\xf1-\\xf3][\\x80-\\xbf]{3}|
\\xf4[\\x80-\\x8f][\\x80-\\xbf]{2})*$
(Again, concatenate to one single line to make it work)
The regex in the last comment has some typos. This is a
syntactically valid one, don't know if it's correct though.
You've to concat the expression in one long line.
^(
[\x00-\x7f]|
[\xc2-\xdf][\x80-\xbf]|
[\xe0][\xa0-\xbf][\x80-\xbf]|
[\xe1-\xec][\x80-\xbf]{2}|
[\xed][\x80-\x9f][\x80-\xbf]|
[\xee-\xef][\x80-\xbf]{2}|
[\xf0][\x90-\xbf][\x80-\xbf]{2}|
[\xf1-\xf3][\x80-\xbf]{3}|
[\xf4][\x80-\x8f][\x80-\xbf]{2}
)*$
A small improvement.
JF Sebastian's regex for UTF-8 is not quite correct. Because code points could otherwise be coded in more than one way using UTF-8, the Standard stipulates that the shortest possible representation for a character should be used. So some 'duplicate' combinations his regex accepts are not valid UTF-8. Additionally, his regex accepts characters beyond the valid Unicode code space.
The regex should be:
^([\x00-\x7f]|
[\xc2-\xdf][\x80-\xbf]|
[\xe0][\xa0-\xbf][\x80-xbf]|
[\xe1-\xec][\x80-\xbf]{2}|
[\xed][\x80-\x9f][\x80-\xbf]|
[\xee-\xef][\x80-\xbf]{2}|
[\xf0][\x90-\xbf][\x80-\xbf]{2}|
[\xf1-\xf3][\x80-\xbf]{3}|
[\xf4][\x80-\x8f][\x80-\xbf]{2}*$)
The best multilanguage library I have found is a part of a CMS system - typo3
http://www.typo3.org
It can convert from and to any charset + it does it by three methods - mbstring, iconv, or the raw way by scripts. It uses only one of these techniques - the fastest if available.
That was the only way I could make mysql 3.23 contain letters in almost any language, while maintaining my website in utf-8 only.
If you want to convert utf-8 to ascii, you can use the following procedure:
<?php
function utf2ascii($string) {
$string=iconv('utf-8','windows-1250',$string);
$win ='...'; // I was unable to paste here all set of characters, but you get the point
$ascii='zyaieuu...';
$string = StrTr($string,$win,$ascii);
return $string;
}
?>
This works based on the assumption that you know what language text (and thus what charset) you want to convert from. In the above example I am converting from an eastern European language, so I know I can safely use windows-1250 charset as an intermediem charset. You will have to adjust the charset based on your language.
Please remember that you have to save this file separately and it must be coded in the charset, which you will call within function iconv. Otherwise it will not work.
The following Perl regular expression tests if a string is well-formed Unicode UTF-8 (Broken up after each | since long lines are not permitted here. Please join as a single line, no spaces, before use.):
^([\x00-\x7f]|
[\xc2-\xdf][\x80-\xbf]|
\xe0[\xa0-\xbf][\x80-\xbf]|
[\xe1-\xec][\x80-\xbf]{2}|
\xed[\x80-\x9f][\x80-\xbf]|
[\xee-\xef][\x80-\xbf]{2}|
f0[\x90-\xbf][\x80-\xbf]{2}|
[\xf1-\xf3][\x80-\xbf]{3}|
\xf4[\x80-\x8f][\x80-\xbf]{2})*$
NOTE: This strictly follows the Unicode standard 4.0, as described in chapter 3.9, table 3-6, "Well-formed UTF-8 byte sequences" ( http://www.unicode.org/versions/Unicode4.0.0/ch03.pdf#G31703 ).
ISO-10646, a super-set of Unicode, uses UTF-8 (there called "UCS", see http://www.unicode.org/faq/utf_bom.html#1 ) in a relaxed variant that supports a 31-bit space encoded into up to six bytes instead of Unicode's 21 bits in up to four bytes. To check for ISO-10646 UTF-8, use the following Perl regular expression (again, broken up, see above):
^([\x00-\x7f]|
[\xc0-\xdf][\x80-\xbf]|
[\xe0-\xef][\x80-\xbf]{2}|
[\xf0-\xf7][\x80-\xbf]{3}|
[\xf8-\xfb][\x80-\xbf]{4}|
[\xfc-\xfd][\x80-\xbf]{5})*$
The following function may be used with above expressions for a quick UTF-8 test, e.g. to distinguish ISO-8859-1-data from UTF-8-data if submitted from a <form accept-charset="utf-8,iso-8859-1" method=..>.
function is_utf8($string) {
return (preg_match('/[insert regular expression here]/', $string) === 1);
}
Here is my variant of UTF8 to Cyrillic Win-1251 encoding convertor that replaces all characters but latin and Russian ones with &#...; entities:
function utf2win1251 ($s)
{
$out = "";
for ($i=0; $i<strlen($s); $i++)
{
$c1 = substr ($s, $i, 1);
$byte1 = ord ($c1);
if ($byte1>>5 == 6) // 110x xxxx, 110 prefix for 2 bytes unicode
{
$i++;
$c2 = substr ($s, $i, 1);
$byte2 = ord ($c2);
$byte1 &= 31; // remove the 3 bit two bytes prefix
$byte2 &= 63; // remove the 2 bit trailing byte prefix
$byte2 |= (($byte1 & 3) << 6); // last 2 bits of c1 become first 2 of c2
$byte1 >>= 2; // c1 shifts 2 to the right
$word = ($byte1<<8) + $byte2;
if ($word==1025) $out .= chr(168); //
elseif ($word==1105) $out .= chr(184); //
elseif ($word>=0x0410 && $word<=0x044F) $out .= chr($word-848); // - -
else
{
$a = dechex($byte1);
$a = str_pad($a, 2, "0", STR_PAD_LEFT);
$b = dechex($byte2);
$b = str_pad($b, 2, "0", STR_PAD_LEFT);
$out .= "&#x".$a.$b.";";
}
}
else
{
$out .= $c1;
}
}
return $out;
}
The function is based on 2 other functions posted below.
I hope it will help those who convert UTF8-encoded text to Win-1251 to use it safely on Russian web pages (works fine in all browsers).
function decode_utf8($str){
# erase null signs in string
$str=eregi_replace("^.{10,13}q\?","",$str);
# paterns
$pat = "/=([0-9A-F]{2})/";
$cha="'.chr(hexdec(";
# to decode with eval and replace
eval("\$str='".
preg_replace($pat,$cha."'$1')).'",$str).
"';");
# return
return $str;
}
Note:
It's possible put it in 3 lines, but I don't got in this first code submition.

If you don't have the multibyte extension installed, here's a function to decode UTF-16 encoded strings. It support both BOM-less and BOM'ed strings, (big- and little-endian byte order.)
<?php

Sorry, there's an error in my previous comment, my error_reporting was not set to E_ALL ... so the notices disappeared...
It seems that those Google URLs are not only UTF-8 encoded, but after encoding, several values also get replaced. (cp1252 ?)
Just the way as described in following comments on the utf8_encode() page:
http://de3.php.net/manual/de/function.utf8-encode.php#44843 and
http://de3.php.net/manual/de/function.utf8-encode.php#45226
Below I post a solution for getting back the ISO-8859-1 encoded string from the encoded data, by turning the function from Aidan the other way around.
hope this time, everything is alright...

big thanks to wielspm and mittag for the function to convert wide utf to html. I have altered your function to output decimal html entities which i hear are more widely supported. Also I've optimized it, it is now twice as fast.
<?php
function utf2html ($str) {
$ret = "";
$max = strlen($str);
$last = 0; // keeps the index of the last regular character
for ($i=0; $i<$max; $i++) {
$c = $str{$i};
$c1 = ord($c);
if ($c1>>5 == 6) { // 110x xxxx, 110 prefix for 2 bytes unicode
$ret .= substr($str, $last, $i-$last); // append all the regular characters we've passed
$c1 &= 31; // remove the 3 bit two bytes prefix
$c2 = ord($str{++$i}); // the next byte
$c2 &= 63; // remove the 2 bit trailing byte prefix
$c2 |= (($c1 & 3) << 6); // last 2 bits of c1 become first 2 of c2
$c1 >>= 2; // c1 shifts 2 to the right
$ret .= "&#" . ($c1 * 100 + $c2) . ";"; // this is the fastest string concatenation
$last = $i+1;
}
}
return $ret . substr($str, $last, $i); // append the last batch of regular characters
}
?>
The fastest way I've found to check if something is valid UTF-8 is
<?php
if (iconv('UTF-8', 'UTF-8', $input) != $input) {
/* It's not UTF-8--for me, it's probably CP1252, the Windows
version of Latin 1, with directed quotation marks and
the Euro sign. */
}
?>.
The iconv() C library fails if it's told a string is UTF-8 and it isn't; the PHP one doesn't, it just returns the conversion up to the point of failure, so you have to compare the result to the input to find out if the conversion succeeded.
Here are some functions for converting UTF-8 to and from Latin 9 (aka ISO-8859-15), if your PHP file is encoded as UTF-8.
<?php
function latin9_to_utf8($latin9str) { // replaces utf8_encode()
$trans = array(""=>"", ""=>"", ""=>"", ""=>"", ""=>"", ""=>"", ""=>"", ""=>"");
$wrong_utf8str = utf8_encode($latin9str);
$utf8str = strtr($wrong_utf8str, $trans);
return $utf8str;
}
function utf8_to_latin9($utf8str) { // replaces utf8_decode()
$trans = array(""=>"", ""=>"", ""=>"", ""=>"", ""=>"", ""=>"", ""=>"", ""=>"");
$wrong_utf8str = strtr($utf8str, $trans);
$latin9str = utf8_decode($wrong_utf8str);
return $latin9str;
}
?>
Note: the above functions will not work if your PHP file is not encoded in UTF-8.
You can copy this binary data to your PHP file instead, it'll work with any encoding (including UTF-8) as long as you copy it as bytes, not characters:
<?php
function latin9_to_utf8($latin9str) { // replaces utf8_encode()
$trans = array("¤"=>"€", "¦"=>" ", "¨"=>"š", "´"=>"Ž", "¸"=>"ž", "¼"=>"Œ", "½"=>"œ", "¾"=>"Ÿ");
$wrong_utf8str = utf8_encode($latin9str);
$utf8str = strtr($wrong_utf8str, $trans);
return $utf8str;
}
function utf8_to_latin9($utf8str) { // replaces utf8_decode()
$trans = array("€"=>"¤", " "=>"¦", "š"=>"¨", "Ž"=>"´", "ž"=>"¸", "Œ"=>"¼", "œ"=>"½", "Ÿ"=>"¾");
$wrong_utf8str = strtr($utf8str, $trans);
$latin9str = utf8_decode($wrong_utf8str);
return $latin9str;
}
?>
(Note: the PHP manual is served as ISO-8859-1, but many of the bytes used here have no meaning in ISO-8859-1, so they'll probably be displayed as Windows-1252 if your using Windows, or garbage otherwise. Just copy the bytes!)

if (strpos($new_str,"?") !== false)
{
// Something went wrong, set new_str to the original string.

Oups, this is the non bugged version :)
Well sometimes you need to store a utf-8 string in a database table column with a fixed size.
Here is a function that fix a string which has been broken (by a substr for example) in a middle of a utf-8 char sequence.
function FixUtf8BrokenString($Desc)
{
// UTF-8 encoding
// bytes : representation
// 1 : 0bbbbbbb
// 2 : 110bbbbb 10bbbbbb
// 3 : 1110bbbb 10bbbbbb 10bbbbbb
// 4 : 11110bbb 10bbbbbb 10bbbbbb 10bbbbbb
// to see if a string is broken in middle of a utf8 char
// we search for last byte encoding size of utf-8 char
// if number of last bytes in string is lower than encoding size
// we remove those last bytes
// if last byte is ord < 128, ok. we return !
if (ord($Desc[strlen($Desc) - 1]) < (0x80))
return $Desc
// loop for finding byte encoding size
$nbbytes = 1;
while (ord($Desc[strlen($Desc) - $nbbytes]) > 0x7F)
{
if (ord($Desc[strlen($Desc) - $nbbytes]) > 0xBF)
break;
$nbbytes++;
}
// check if byte encoding size is encoding a size of 4 bytes
if ((ord($Desc[strlen($Desc) - $nbbytes]) > 0xF0) && ($nbbytes == 4))
return $Desc;
// check if byte encoding size is encoding a size of 3 bytes
if ((ord($Desc[strlen($Desc) - $nbbytes]) > 0xE0) && ($nbbytes == 3))
return $Desc;
// check if byte encoding size is encoding a size of 2 bytes
if ((ord($Desc[strlen($Desc) - $nbbytes]) > 0xC0) && ($nbbytes == 2))
return $Desc;
// then this is the case where string is badly broken, we remove last bytes
return substr($Desc, 0, -$nbbytes);
}
$str = "Ekonomi_ve_\xc4\xb0\xc5\x9f_D\xc3\xbcnyas\xc4\xb1";
$broken = substr($str, 0, 12);
$fixed = FixUtf8BrokenString($broken);
echo "$str<hr>$fixed<hr>$broken<hr>";

addition to above entrie:
it does not mean "when it comes to a '='" but when it comes to a "0"
The above function does not work entirely correct. It comes to problems, if there is a leading "=" in one of the two Strings it produces and glues out of the two bytes of the unicode letter.
The following works:
<?php
//Convert Unicode to ASCII + Entities
$fp = fopen($DOCUMENT_ROOT."/your_unicode_text.txt", "r");
while ( !feof($fp) )
{ $string = fgets($fp, 1000);
$utf2html_string .= $string;
}
$string2 = $utf2html_string;
fclose ( $fp);
function utf2html ()

Here is a function I made to convert all 2 byte utf in a &#xxx; form:
function utf2html ($utf2html_string)
{
$utf2html_retstr = "";
for ($utf2html_p=0; $utf2html_p<strlen($utf2html_string); $utf2html_p++):
$utf2html_c = substr ($utf2html_string, $utf2html_p, 1);
$utf2html_c1 = ord ($utf2html_c);
if ($utf2html_c1>>5 == 6): // 110x xxxx, 110 prefix for 2 bytes unicode
$utf2html_p++;
$utf2html_t = substr ($utf2html_string, $utf2html_p, 1);
$utf2html_c2 = ord ($utf2html_t);
$utf2html_c1 &= 31; // remove the 3 bit two bytes prefix
$utf2html_c2 &= 63; // remove the 2 bit trailing byte prefix
$utf2html_c2 |= (($utf2html_c1 & 3) << 6); // last 2 bits of c1 become first 2 of c2
$utf2html_c1 >>= 2; // c1 shifts 2 to the right
$utf2html_n = dechex($utf2html_c1).dechex($utf2html_c2);
$utf2html_retstr .= sprintf ("&#%03d;", hexdec($utf2html_n));
else:
$utf2html_retstr .= $utf2html_c;
endif;
endfor;
return $utf2html_retstr;
}
echo utf8_decode(
"Ekonomi_ve_\xc4\xb0\xc5\x9f_D\xc3xbcnyas\xc4\xb1");
Outputs: Ekonomi_ve_??_Dnyas?
This is not a bug. For example "\xc4\xb0" is decoded like this:
0xC4 = 110 00100 (110 prefix for 2 bytes)
0xB0 = 10 110000 (10 for trailing byte)
Character = 001 0011 0000 = 0x130
This U+0130 Unicode character is not defined in ISO-8859-1
(where all codes are below 0x100), so the utf8_decode() function
cannot represent it, and inserts a '?' replacement character
in the result string...
There's no alternative in the utf8_decode() function
which returns a string made of
single-byte characters.
PHP really lacks a datatype for UTF-16 (a.k.a. Unicode) strings,
unlike Java whose strings are always natively encoded
with UTF-16...
The alternative for PHP would be that it allows inserting SGML
character entities. In the above example, it could return
"İ" when decoding "\xc4\xb0".
May be a future version of PHP could make strings using
double-byte UTF-16 encoding, so that Unicode could be natively
supported, but this would require adding new functions to
define the behavior of I/O functions to provide external
encode/decode capabilities when sending Unicode strings to
a file stream, or with echo and print builtins for the
standard input and output streams:
- What would be the semantic of fwrite($fp, $string)
if $string can contain any UTF-16 characters ?
- Should fwrite() truncate the highest byte of each UTF-16
character, letting the user anticipating this truncation by
performing the conversion to UTF-8 or character entities himself ?
- Should the user be able to specify an encoder/decoder object
used by all I/O operations performed on a file ?
For example:
- set_encoder($fp, 'utf8_encode') would define the PHP function
to call to encode a string.
- set_encoder($fp) or set_encoder($fp, null) would restore the
default (stripping) encoder...
- then fwrite($fp, $string) would return the number of bytes
written to the stream, which may be larger than the length of
$string...
The following function will take a utf-8 encoded string and convert it to Unicode entities (the format is &#nnn; or &#nnnnn; with n={0..9} ). Most browsers will display Unicode entities regardless of the encoding of the page. Otherwise try charset=utf-8 to make sure the entities display correctly. This works well with IE and Mozilla (tested with Mozilla 0.9.8 for X-Windos).
