Hi!

I got a problem with my PHP 5.5.12 which I got with WAMP Server.

PROBLEM:
  When I want to return the length of an Arabic string value it is not showing the exact length of the characters I wrote in that string PHP is increasing the length.

Test script:
---------------
header('Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8;');

// demo string by Pashto language
$myText = "دا يوه جمله ده";

// length of the string above is 14 characters
// you can test it with JavaScript in your browser console
// and that is returning the exact length 14 but in PHP
// it is showing 25

echo strlen( $myText ); // 25

// I also tested it with

var_dump( $myText ); // string 'دا يوه جمله ده' (length=25)
