Understanding post content unicode

[kh99]

I haven't dealt with this before, but doing a little searching, I found this page: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2...8-encoded-char

and adapting it a little, I found that if for example your message is saved in $message and looks like this: "\u043a\u0430\u0442\u0443\u0448\u043a\u0438", and you do something like this:

function replace_unicode_escape_sequence($match) { return mb_convert_encoding(pack('H*', $match[1]), 'HTML-ENTITIES', 'UCS-2BE'); } 
$message = preg_replace_callback('/\\\\u([0-9a-f]{4})/i', 'replace_unicode_escape_sequence', $message);

before sending $message to the dm object, then you will get a post with cyrillic chars.
