Re: Substr function and unicode

Hi Denys,

To use mb_strlen and mb_substr you need to enable mb_string php extension.

Also check out this library: http://phputf8.sourceforge.net/ which has wrapper functions: http://phputf8.sourceforge.net/#String_Functions

If you work with this, kindly let us know your observations in more details.

Good luck.

Regards,
Prasad

Hi all!


I'm using vtiger CRM 5.0.4 with Russian language Pack.

I've noticed a bug in "\modules\Leads\ListViewTop.php" on line 115:

        $Top_Leads = (strlen($lead['leadname']) > 20) ?
(substr($lead['leadname'],0,20).'...') : $lead['leadname'];

Neither "substr" nor "strlen" work correct with Unicode chars.

I found a solution, to use mb_strlen and mb_substr. Is it suitable to use
this functions or there are some other suggestions how to fix it?






Best regards,
Denys Potapov
