Hi everyone,

Can you please let me know why I am getting error on populating
Persian(Arabic)Numbers?!
I have saved the php file as "Uncode in UTF-8" format which can
display the dropdown list in a HTML correctly but when I want to
retrieve them in PHP I encountered with following errors
Errors:
(!) Notice: Use of undefined constant ١‎ - assumed '١‎' in C:\wamp\www
\PHPCode\Test.php on line 14
(!) Notice: Use of undefined constant ٣١‎ - assumed '٣١' in C:\wamp\www
\PHPCode\Test.php on line 14
* ١ = is a Persian number equal to 1
* ٣١ = is a Persian number equal to 31
Code:

<?php
$numberArray = array();

for ($i = ١‎; $i < ٣١; $i++)
{
$numberArray[] = $i;
}
for ($i = 0; $i < sizeof($numberArray); $i++) {
echo "$numberArray[$i]"."<br />";
}
?>

I really appreciate your time regarding this.

PHP (as most other computer languages out there) expects English
numbers, period. You can perform calculations with other type of numbers
more than you can translate "while()" or "for()" into other languages.
You can't even use comma as decimal separator. It's simply how the
syntax language has been defined.
