Janko in a Jar

I was doing some php portal that is all in UTF-8 and suddenly I realized that functions like substr() don’t understand Unicode. Even worse is that I don’t really understand unicode UTF-8, UCS-2 and all this strange things too. I found this article then and now I am half unicode-enlightened. I urge you to read it too…
The Absolute Minimum Every Software Developer Absolutely, Positively Must Know About Unicode and Character Sets

I am switching all my libs and future works to UTF-8 now because I am sick of having problems with everything when it comes to special characters which my Slovene languge also has.
