Is it true that PHP has no multibyte (unicode) support?

    In PHP, a character is the same as a byte, that is, there are exactly 256 different characters possible. This also implies that PHP has no native support of Unicode. See utf8_encode() and utf8_decode() for some Unicode support.

    See the online PHP Manual
