Bug description: explode() corrupts utf8 data
Description:
------------
utf8 encoded page, send <input type=text name=foo, if you input
ferienhäuser and use array = explode(" ",$_REQUEST["foo"]) on that
variable you get an array with echo $array[0] displayed in the browser
source as ferienhã€user instead of ferienhÀuser.
echo $_REQUEST["foo"]; displays correctly
Same happens if string submitted is "ferienhäuser region" so it is not due
to the lack of a space in the string.
using php5 compiled with latest apache and mysql-support on suse linux
9.0.
Reproduce code:
---------------
<input type=text name=foo value=''>
if($_REQUEST["foo"] != ""){$array = explode(" ",$foo)}
Expected result:
----------------
in_array("ferienhäuser",$array) == true;
Actual result:
--------------
As described above in_array does not find the keyword and all browsers do
not display $array[0] correctly, although they do for $_REQUEST["foo"]
Reason, string gets corrupted.
