Use this function

function Unicode_decode($text) {
     return implode(unpack('H*', iconv("UTF-8", "UCS-4BE", $text)));
 }

If you want to have U+0000 use this :

for ($i=0; $i < strlen($word); $i++)
{
    $wordConvert = Unicode_decode($word[$i]);
    $result .= "U+" . substr($wordConvert, -4, 4) . "<br/>";

}

echo $result;

Its not working for multiple characters ... :) Thanks a lot for your efforts :) – Siddeshwar Vanga Aug 18 '15 at 13:48
You want, for example, "AB" to be `U+0041 U+0042` ? – Hearner Aug 18 '15 at 13:49

No , Actually I want continuous string like .. 00410042 like this .. so i , utilized the function you have given me with that .. i have divided that string by 8 characters each to make it array using "str_split" then using for loop made that long string. Thanks a lot Hearner.. your answer was very helpful to me. – Siddeshwar Vanga Aug 19 '15 at 12:49
No problem, I tried to make the simplest code I could :) If you need anything you can ask. – Hearner Aug 19 '15 at 12:52
