[PHP] How can a UTF-8 string can be converted to an array of Bytes?

[Eli Orr (Office)]

Hi,

Since a UTF-8 is a multi-bytes mechanism I get for 2 or 3 bytes  UTF-8 
encoded character a single character


How can it be break into the REAL bytes array that represent the UTF-8 
string

 and how  can we reassembled the bytes array  back to UTF-8?

You can use mb_substr [1] with a UTF-8 encoding to get the single characters.
