POPHP utf8 problem

Body
copied!<p>I have some problems comparing an array with Norwegian characters with a utf8 character.</p> <p>All characters except the special Norwegian characters(æ, ø, å) works fine.</p> <pre><code>function isNorwegianChar($Char) { $aNorwegianChars = array('a', 'A', 'b', 'B', 'c', 'C', 'd', 'D', 'e', 'E', 'f', 'F', 'g', 'G', 'h', 'H', 'i', 'I', 'j', 'J', 'k', 'K', 'l', 'L', 'm', 'M', 'n', 'N', 'o', 'O', 'p', 'P', 'q', 'Q', 'r', 'R', 's', 'S', 't', 'T', 'u', 'U', 'v', 'V', 'w', 'W', 'x', 'X', 'y', 'Y', 'z', 'Z', 'æ', 'Æ', 'ø', 'Ø', 'å', 'Å', '=', '(', ')', ' ', '-'); $iArrayLength = count($aNorwegianChars); for($iCount = 0; $iCount < $iArrayLength; $iCount++) { if($aNorwegianChars[$iCount] == $Char) { return true; } } return false; } </code></pre> <p>If anyone has any idea about what I can do pleas let me know.</p> <p><strong>Update:</strong></p> <p>The reason for needing this is that I'm trying to parse a text file that contains lines with Norwegian and Chinese words, like a dictionary. I want to split the line in to strings, one containing the Norwegian word and one containing the Chinese. This will later be inserted in a database. Example lines:</p> <p>impulsiv 形衝動的</p> <p>imøtegå 動反對，反駁</p> <p>imøtekomme 動符合</p> <p>alkoholmisbruk(er) 名濫用酒精 (名濫用酒精的人)</p> <p>alkoholpåvirket 形受酒精影響的</p> <p>alkotest 名呼吸性酒精測試</p> <p>alkymi(st) 名煉金術 (名煉金術士)</p> <p>all, alt, alle, 形全部, 所有 </p> <p>As you can see there might be spaces between the words so I can not use something easy like explode to split between the Chinese and Norwegian words. What I do is use the isNorwegianChar and loop through the line until I find a char that is not in the array.</p> <p>The problem is that it æ, ø and å is not returned as a Norwegian character and it think the Chinese word has started.</p> <p>Here is the code:</p> <pre><code> //Open file. $rFile = fopen("norsk-kinesisk.txt", "r"); // Loop through the file. $Count = 0; while(!feof($rFile)) { if(40== $Count) { break; } $sLine = fgets($rFile); if(0 == $Count) { $sLine = mb_substr($sLine, 3); } $iLineLength = strlen($sLine); $bChineseHasStarted = false; $sNorwegianWord = ''; $sChineseWord = ''; for($iCount2 = 0; $iCount2 < $iLineLength; $iCount2++) { $char = mb_substr($sLine, $iCount2, 1); if(($bChineseHasStarted === false) && (false == isNorwegianChar($char))) { $bChineseHasStarted = true; } if(false === $bChineseHasStarted) { $sNorwegianWord .= $char; } else { $sChineseWord .= $char; } //echo $char; } $sNorwegianWord = trim($sNorwegianWord); $sChineseWord = trim($sChineseWord); $Count++; } fclose($rFile); </code></pre>
