使用方括号的字符串中的访问字符无法正确输出

问题描述：

I have a string and i want to access ä character. But it outputs question mark instead of correct character.

Here is my code.

$array = array('ä', 'b', 'c');
$string = 'äbc';
echo $string; // äbc
echo '<br />';
echo $string[0]; // ?
echo '<br />';
echo $array[0]; // ä

DEMO

Can anyone tell me why?

UPDATED

echo strlen($string); // returns 4
echo mb_substr($string, 0, 1); // ä

我有一个字符串，我想访问ä code>字符。但它输出问号而不是正确的字符。 p>

这是我的代码。 p>


  $ array = array（'ä'，'b'，'c'）; 
 $ string ='äbc'; 
echo $ string;  //äbc
echo'＆lt; br /＆gt;'; 
echo $ string [0];  //？
echo'＆lt; br /＆gt;'; 
echo $ array [0];  //ä
  code>  pre> 
 
    DEMO   a>  strong>  p> 
 
 
有谁可以告诉我原因？ p> 
 
 

 更新 strong>  p> 
 
  
  echo strlen（$ string）;  //返回4 
echo mb_substr（$ string，0,1）;  //ä
  code>  pre> 
  div>

答

Depending on your charset, the letter ä is a multi-byte letter. When you access a string using array access, it returns the first byte. In case of a multi-byte ä the returns a non printable control character.

Accessing the array using array-access returns the first element, regardless of it's length, in this case the multi-byte ä.

答

You need to use mb_substr() like so

$array = array('ä', 'b', 'c');
$string = 'äbc';
echo $string; // äbc
echo '<br />';
echo mb_substr($string, 0, 1, 'UTF8'); // replace UTF8 with whatever charset you are using
echo '<br />';
echo $array[0]; // ä

DEMO

The reason is because PHP assumes characters take one byte. But this is not the case in your situation with ä so you need to use mb_substr() instead of the index or substr().

I strongly recommend reading the answers to this question Get first character of UTF-8 string
