Your bug submission system escaped the greek characters. Please view them unescaped to see what I mean. The first letter of the greek word is the capital Sigma in the first string, and the small Sigma in the second string.

It's more likely your browser sending them like that.
Put them as txt file somewhere in the web or use some other browser than IE.

Hi sniper. First of all I'm using Firefox.

Check the TXT at http://www.zefxis.gr/temp/stripos.txt

Thanks!

Where does it say that this function supports UTF-8 ?

It's a pity that it doesn't...

Here's a multibyte enabled workaround for stripos:

function mb_stripos($haystack, $needle, $offset = 0) {
     return (mb_strpos(mb_strtolower($haystack), mb_strtolower($needle),$offset));
}
