Description:

When i try to see the first letter of a string on php5 like 
$var{0} - it returns an empty string...
and when i use substr i need to start the string from 1 (not 0) and
finish on 2 (not 1) - is it a bug or a php 5 improvment?
it seems to be a problem in all the php 5 based servers


Reproduce code:
---
$var = "my name is stas";
echo $var{0};

or

$var = "my name is stas";
echo substr($var,0,1);

Expected result:

m
m

Actual result:
--
---nothing---
its showing an empty page with nothing in it
and just when i use the substr with the first letter 1 and end 2 its
returns me the right thing...
