Hmmm, if you've compiled PHP with glibc, I suppose you could simply do the following (code not tested): <?php setlocale( 'fa_IR.utf8' ); $result = strcoll( $str1, $str2 ); ?> And yes, PHP doesn't provide access to strxfrm, but I think it's trivial to write a PHP extension which provides that function. ------------- Ehsan Akhgari Farda Technology (http://www.farda-tech.com/) [ Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ] [ WWW: http://www.beginthread.com/Ehsan ] _______________________________________________ PersianComputing mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.sharif.edu/mailman/listinfo/persiancomputing
