<?php
$s = "\u304A\u65E9\u3046\u3054\u3056\u3044\u307E\u3059";
echo transliterator_transliterate("Hex-Any/Java", $s), "\n";

//now the reverse operation with a supplementary character
$supplChar = html_entity_decode('&#x1D11E;');
echo mb_strlen($supplChar, "UTF-8"), "\n";
$encSupplChar = transliterator_transliterate("Any-Hex/Java", $supplChar);
//echoes two encoded UTF-16 code units
echo $encSupplChar, "\n";
//and back
echo transliterator_transliterate("Hex-Any/Java", $encSupplChar), "\n";
?>
