PHP multibyte strings unicode problem

1.00/5 (1 vote)

See more:

I have split a string letter by letter (greek letters) using the mb functions of php. I have a javascript function too which i want to get the unicode of these letters (greek alpha=945 etc), but in every letter it gets as unicode the number 37.
I have tried solving this with functions like mb_convert_encoding but i had no luck.
Any ideas will be helpful.
Thanks in advance

Then you need to create and show some code sample manifesting the problem. Are you sure you know how Unicode works? Aren't you convert your characters to something?
