Generating russian pages with php

Hi,

I have a multilingual web site that supports occidental languages, and I would like now to add Russian (cyrillic alphabet). Does anyone know if I can still use normal single-byte characters? Is it enough to add an HTTP header with the correct charset?

Or do I have to use Unicode? I understand php does not support Unicode natively.

Thanks a lot for any help and suggestions.

one byte encoding such as KOI8 or Windows-1251 would be sufficient.
