strtolower with polish sign

[robert.szczepanski]

Hi everybody;

I can't change polish sign to small letter.

This is my php script:

<?php

setlocale(LC_AL L, "pl_PL.UTF-8") ; //this function return
"pl_PL.UTF-8"
echo strtolower('¯Ó£ TA WODA');

?>

When I have executed my script
the polish letter has still capital.

The result is "¯Ó£ta woda" in my firefox.
The letter "TA WODA" change ok i.e "ta woda"
but polish letter no change good i.e. "¯Ó£" ="¯Ó£". it has still the
same.

I have tried to use: "header('Conten t-type: text/
html;charset=pl _PL.UTF-8'); " but
result has still the same.

Any sugestion or comment how to corrent change this sign to small
letter I am greatly appreciated.

Robert.

It looks like you're trying to use a multi-byte encoded character, in UTF-8.
strtolower and the other core PHP string functions can't handle multibyte, so
it may well be that strlower is changing the case of the string character by
character - which won't work for UTF-8, even if you've set the locale.

You might have more luck with the mbstring functions, like:
http://uk3.php.net/manual/en/function.mb-strtolower.php

Try the following:

<?php
header("Content-type: text/html; charset=utf-8");

setlocale(LC_AL L, "pl_PL.UTF-8");

// UTF-8 encoded Polish characters
$chars = array(
chr(0xC4) . chr(0x85),
chr(0xC4) . chr(0x99),
chr(0xC3) . chr(0xB3),
chr(0xC4) . chr(0x87),
chr(0xC5) . chr(0x82),
);

print "<pre>";

foreach ($chars as $c)
{
print $c;
print " strtoupper: ";
print strtoupper($c);

print " mb_strtoupper: ";
print mb_strtoupper($ c, 'UTF-8');

print "<br>";
}

print "</pre>";
?>

Have you tried setting locales with "setlocale" function? I don't know
much about Polish, but you should be able to get away with something like
setlocale(LC_AL L,"pl_PL");

setlocale(LC_A LL,"pl_PL");

He's already done that...

I have tried:

var_dump (setlocale(LC_A LL, "pl_PL")) ; //this function
return: bool(false) - I think it is wrong!!
echo strtolower('¯Ó£ TA WODA'); // it has still display wrond
text

this is my exec locale in ubuntu:

rob@rob-desktop:/var/www/tmp$ locale
LANG=pl_PL.UTF-8
LANGUAGE=pl_PL: pl:en_GB:en
LC_CTYPE="pl_PL .UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="pl_ PL.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="pl_PL. UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="pl_ PL.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="pl _PL.UTF-8"
