Bug description: Possible bug in utf8_encode (bit operations)
Description:
------------
Hi!
I'm currently developing a nice script that generates OpenOffice SXW files
by filling the content.xml (which is UTF-8 encoded) with database content.
While trying to do this I found out that utf8_encode('�') (charcode 147)
returns ''. But when I checked the whole result in OffenOffice '�' is
displayed as square (character unknown?!). So I made some tests with UTF-8
conversion (even mb_* functions) and recognized that characters between
128 and 160 returned by utf8_encode() don�t seem to match the standard. As
mentioned above '�' is returned as '' but should be '’' (as you will
get it using UltraEdit for conversion).
Does anyone can give me some explanations here?
I�m not familiar with this UTF-8 / bit-conversion stuff, but I don�t think
PHP does what it�s supposed to do here. For a first workaround I simply
coded a custom_utf8_encode() that uses an own char map to override this
misbehaviour (see below). Can someone help my out with this strange bug?!
Regards

function custom_utf8_encode($str)
{
$chrMap = array(128 => '�', 129 => '', 130 => '‚', 131 => 'ƒ',
132 => '„', 133 => '…', 134 => '� ', 135 =>
'‡',
136 => 'ˆ', 137 => '‰', 138 => '� ', 139 =>
'‹',
140 => 'Œ', 141 => '', 142 => 'Ž', 143 =>
'',
144 => '', 145 => '‘', 146 => '’', 147 =>
'“',
148 => '”', 149 => '•', 150 => '–', 151 =>
'—',
152 => '˜', 153 => '™', 154 => 'š', 155 =>
'›',
156 => 'œ', 157 => '', 158 => 'ž', 159 =>
'Ÿ');
$newStr = '';
for ($i = 0; $i < strlen($str); $i++) {
$chrVal = ord($str[$i]);
if ($chrVal > 127 && $chrVal < 160) {
$newStr .= $chrMap[$chrVal];
}
else {
$newStr .= utf8_encode($str[$i]);
}
}
return $newStr;
}
