Calculate sha1 thumbprint of ssl certificate

<?php
function sha1_thumbprint_pem($pem_file_contents)
{
    $file = $pem_file_contents;
    $file = preg_replace('/\-+BEGIN CERTIFICATE\-+/','',$file);
    $file = preg_replace('/\-+END CERTIFICATE\-+/','',$file);

preg_replace/preg_match utf8

preg_replace('/([^a-z\x{00C0}-\x{02AF}\x{0380}-\x{FFFF}\.\, ]|[\.\,][\.\,]+)/iu', '', $str);//allows most utf8
