How can I convert Persian/Arabic digits from the string to English digits?
I have a website in Persian. The keyboard of my website's users is in Persian (or Arabic) usually. So their password will not get matched sometimes.
I have a function for their username (cell-phone number) which converts Persian/Arabic digits to English:
function convert_digits_to_en($entry){
$fmt = numfmt_create('fa', NumberFormatter::DECIMAL);
return numfmt_parse($fmt, $entry);
}
It will work if the entry contains all digits.
i.e. ۰۹۱۲۳۵۶۵۴۹۸ will be converted to 09123565498 as well.
The problem is when the entry contains both characters and digits (like a password). i.e. test۰۹۱۲. I need to convert it to test0912. My current function returns an empty string for that entry. Any idea how can I fix it?

I just had a déjà vu, I've definitely seen this / similar question asked today and it was suggested to use client side and not PHP. Edit: Turns out it was something else, similar but not same: stackoverflow.com/questions/53264154/…

A non-regex solution would be this:
function convert_digits_to_en($input)
{
$arabic = ['۰' => 0, '۱' => 1];
return strtr($input, $arabic);
}
echo convert_digits_to_en('test۱۰۰'); // test100
Note: You'd need to add in the numbers to that array, my Persian / Arabic is not that good.

you can use your string as array and iterate them like:
function convert_digits_to_en($entry){
$result = '';
$fmt = numfmt_create('fa', NumberFormatter::DECIMAL);
foreach((array)$entry as $value){
$transform_digit = numfmt_parse($fmt, $value);;
$result = empty($transform_digit) ? $value : $transform_digit;
}
return $result;
}
