Return utf-8 (farsi) string from nuSOAP webservice

I wrote a very simple web service, which you can see below:

SERVER:

<?php
ini_set('error_reporting', E_STRICT);
require_once("nuSOAP/lib/nusoap.php");
$namespace = "http://localhost/webservice/index.php";

// create a new soap server
$server = new soap_server();

$server->soap_defencoding = 'utf-8';
$server->decode_utf8 = false;

// configure our WSDL
$server->configureWSDL("HelloExample");

// set our namespace
$server->wsdl->schemaTargetNamespace = $namespace;

//Register a method that has parameters and return types
$server->register(
// method name:
'HelloWorld',
// parameter list:
array('name'=>'xsd:string'),
// return value(s):
array('return'=>'xsd:string'),
// namespace:
$namespace,
// soapaction: (use default)
false,
// style: rpc or document
'rpc',
// use: encoded or literal
'encoded',
// description: documentation for the method
'Simple Hello World Method');

$POST_DATA = isset($GLOBALS['HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA']) ? $GLOBALS['HTTP_RAW_POST_DATA'] : '';

// pass our posted data (or nothing) to the soap service
$server->service($POST_DATA);
exit();
?>

CUSTOMER:

<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Title</title>
<meta charset="utf-8"/>
</head>
<body>
<?php
require_once("nuSOAP/lib/nusoap.php");

    $client = new nusoap_client('http://localhost/webservice/index.php?wsdl');

    $client->soap_defencoding = 'UTF-8';
    $client->decode_utf8 = true;

    $err = $client->getError();
    if ($err) {
        echo '<h2>Constructor error</h2><pre>' . $err . '</pre>';
        die();
    }

    $parameters = array('name' => "محمد");

    $result = $client->call('HelloWorld', $parameters);

    if ($client->fault) {
        echo '<h2>Fault</h2><pre>';
        print_r($result);
        echo '</pre>';
        die();
    } 
    else
    {
        echo $result;
    }
?>
</body>
</html>

this should return Hello محمد But is this return Hello ????

is a unicode problem?

any help to fix this would be appreciated

i fixed it myself :)

use this for server code :

$server->soap_defencoding = 'UTF-8';
$server->decode_utf8 = false;
$server->encode_utf8 = true;

and Client :

$client->soap_defencoding = 'UTF-8';
$client->decode_utf8 = false;
