Members

protected

• $incrementStyles — array
  Increment styles.

Methods

public

• compliant() — Tests whether a string complies as UTF-8. This will be much faster than utf8_is_valid but will pass five and six octet UTF-8 sequences, which are not supported by Unicode and so cannot be displayed correctly in a browser. In other words it is not as strict as utf8_is_valid but it's faster. If you use it to validate user input, you place yourself at the risk that attackers will be able to inject 5 and 6 byte sequences (which may or may not be a significant risk, depending on what you are are doing)
• increment() — Increments a trailing number in a string.
• ltrim() — UTF-8 aware replacement for ltrim()
• parse_url() — Does a UTF-8 safe version of PHP parse_url function
• rtrim() — UTF-8 aware replacement for rtrim() Strip whitespace (or other characters) from the end of a string You only need to use this if you are supplying the charlist optional arg and it contains UTF-8 characters. Otherwise rtrim will work normally on a UTF-8 string
• splitCamelCase() — Split a string in camel case format
• str_ireplace() — UTF-8 aware alternative to str_ireplace Case-insensitive version of str_replace
• str_split() — UTF-8 aware alternative to str_split Convert a string to an array
• strcasecmp() — UTF-8/LOCALE aware alternative to strcasecmp A case insensitive string comparison
• strcmp() — UTF-8/LOCALE aware alternative to strcmp A case sensitive string comparison
• strcspn() — UTF-8 aware alternative to strcspn Find length of initial segment not matching mask
• stristr() — UTF-8 aware alternative to stristr Returns all of haystack from the first occurrence of needle to the end.
• strlen() — UTF-8 aware alternative to strlen.
• strpos() — UTF-8 aware alternative to strpos.
• strrev() — UTF-8 aware alternative to strrev Reverse a string
• strrpos() — UTF-8 aware alternative to strrpos Finds position of last occurrence of a string
• strspn() — UTF-8 aware alternative to strspn Find length of initial segment matching mask
• strtolower() — UTF-8 aware alternative to strtlower
• strtoupper() — UTF-8 aware alternative to strtoupper Make a string uppercase Note: The concept of a characters "case" only exists is some alphabets such as Latin, Greek, Cyrillic, Armenian and archaic Georgian - it does not exist in the Chinese alphabet, for example. See Unicode Standard Annex #21: Case Mappings
• substr() — UTF-8 aware alternative to substr Return part of a string given character offset (and optionally length)
• substr_replace() — UTF-8 aware substr_replace Replace text within a portion of a string
• transcode() — Transcode a string.
• trim() — UTF-8 aware replacement for trim() Strip whitespace (or other characters) from the beginning and end of a string Note: you only need to use this if you are supplying the charlist optional arg and it contains UTF-8 characters. Otherwise trim will work normally on a UTF-8 string
• ucfirst() — UTF-8 aware alternative to ucfirst Make a string's first character uppercase or all words' first character uppercase
• ucwords() — UTF-8 aware alternative to ucwords Uppercase the first character of each word in a string
• valid() — Tests a string as to whether it's valid UTF-8 and supported by the Unicode standard.
