character not displaying peoperly when getting the part of the content using sub

[phpmady]

Hi,

 

When i am getting the part of the text using the function substr, am getting this kind of problem , (text in the end not printing properly) how to solve this.

 

تسر مؤسسة مهارات التقنية ومؤسسة اشبكة الثنائية ان تطلع جميع عملاءها بإصدار نظام تاتش لإدارة الموقع الالكترونية من يوم السبت ا�

 

 

This is the code am using

$sub_string_content = substr(strip_tags($temp['News_Content'],'<p></a><ul><li><div><span>'),0,300);

 

 

 

Thanks,

I've never tried substr with something besides the English alphabet.  When I viewed the source code, though, I got HTML Entities.  Could that be the problem, one of the entities being sliced?
