or do the same but with strtr()

If your goal is to eventually convert Hebrew chars to something else, you could
just use str_replace or stri_replace and have each Hebrew char as an array
element, replaced by another array element as a match.
Example in English:
str_replace(array('a','b','c'),array('t','u','v'),$string);
This will replace all instances of a,b and c with t, u, and v respectively.
This removes the regex resource.

Subject: [PHP] How to check if $string contains Hebrew characters?
Hi,
I have a $string and i want to know if it contains Hebrew characters in it,
I wrote the following:
function containHebrewChars ($string)
{
$chars = "אבגדהוזחטיכלמנסעפצקרשת"; // ABC of hebrew chars (AlefBet)
$chars =
preg_replace("/([\xE0-\xFA])/e","chr(215).chr(ord(\${1})-80)",$chars); //
convert it to UTF8
if (preg_match("/[".$chars."]/", $string)) return true;
return false;
}
I'm pretty sure there is a better way to do this (regex is overkill), any
ideas?
Regards,
Nitsan
