Why this PHP code not working through XAMPP?

Question

No matter what Bengali number I provide in $ben_num variable, it always outputs 1, like with 1111111111. Whatever the length of the $ben_num the output is the same length of ones (1s).

I tried to run the code in

It works perfectly fine in these sites. Output is whatever bengali number of strings I give (eg 1234567890).

Might PHP version be the problem?

$ben_num = "১২৩৪৫৬৭৮৯০";
bn2enNumber($ben_num);

function bn2enNumber ($number){
   $search_array= array("১", "২", "৩", "৪", "৫", "৬", "৭", "৮", "৯", "০");
   $replace_array= array("1", "2", "3", "4", "5", "6", "7", "8", "9", "0");
   $en_number = str_replace($search_array, $replace_array, $number);

   echo $en_number;
}

The encoding of the PHP file is probably wrong. Try to use your code editor to change the file's encoding to UTF-8 — Nicholas Summers

Most likely your setup does not support multi byte strings. You want to read about that extension: php.net/manual/en/book.mbstring.php — arkascha

Make sure your source code file (.php file) is saved in UTF-8
