Php regex issue symbols

In send mail function I have code for decoding header:

preg_match_all('/[\000-\010\013\014\016-\037\177-\377]/', $str, $matches);

If in string is a symbol, for example ä (März) then it will return an empty string. Please help me, how can I fix it (for use with German symbols too)? Thanks!

Try adding the u flag outside the delimiters:

$str="März";
preg_match_all('/[\000-\010\013\014\016-\037\177-\377]/u', $str, $matches);
print_r($matches);

If your PHP file is encoded as UTF-8, you can also use special characters inside the pattern:

preg_match_all('/[Mäz]/u', $str, $matches);
print_r($matches);

You can test it here.

Just add /u flag for unicode:

preg_match_all('/[\000-\010\013\014\016-\037\177-\377]/u', $str, $matches);
#                                               here __^
