php substr is a functional function developed based on the php language that can return a part of a string. Sometimes when we use php substr, some garbled characters will appear. How to solve it?
string substr ( string $string , int $start [, int $length ] )
Returns a string with a length of length starting from the start position in the string
The substr function intercepts characters by bytes. Chinese characters are 2 characters when encoded in GB2312 section, UTF-8 encoding is 3 bytes, so if Chinese characters are truncated when intercepting a string of specified length, the returned result will be garbled when displayed.
After checking, the solutions can be summarized into two categories:
1. Use the mb_substr() function instead
string mb_substr ( string $str , int $start [, int $length [, string $encoding ]] )
is similar to the substr() function, except Counting is based on the number of characters to ensure character safety
Using the mb_substr() function can ensure that there will be no garbled characters, but the disadvantage is that the length statistics become the number of characters instead of the number of bytes. When used for display, there will be a large difference in display length between Chinese results and English results of the same length.
2. Self-built function to enhance substr function
Here is a function that can better solve the problem of substr encountering Chinese characters. Chinese characters are calculated in 2 length units, so that the final display length of the string interception results in a mixed Chinese and English environment is close; the last incomplete character is discarded to ensure that there will be no garbled characters on the display; and it is compatible with UTF commonly used for Chinese characters -8 encoding and GB2312 encoding have good versatility.

This function is modified from the getstr() function in UCHome 1.5.
