strtolower fails with arabic characters
<p>my site is allow users to register with arabic/english names</p>

<p>i am trying to convert user first and last name to lower case</p>

<p>i am using this function</p>

<pre><code>$first_name = strtolower ( $_POST['first_name'] );
</code></pre>

<p>if i try to put arabic name i get this encode ( ø¹ù„ø§ø¡ )</p>

<p>try it by your self</p>

<pre><code>&lt;?
echo 'مصر'; // return مصر
echo strtolower('مصر'); // return ø¹ù„ø§ø¡
?&gt;
</code></pre>

<p>?></p>
