From: motion_4u at hotmail dot com Operating system: Win2k Server PHP version: 5.1.1 PHP Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem Bug description: ltrim() chops the first letter "C" Description: ------------ Function ltrim() chops one character extra incase the string starts with "c"! funny but true You better check the rtrim() function too since I have found bugs there too. You can test this function directly online there: http://motions.sytes.net/funny_ltrim.php Reproduce code: --------------- $url="C:\\dir1\\dir2\\filename.txt"; echo "<br>"; $url = ltrim(strrchr($url,'\x5c'),'\x5c'); echo $url; // ok output: filename.txt $url="C:\\dir1\\dir2\\cfilename.txt"; echo "<br>"; $url = ltrim(strrchr($url,'\x5c'),'\x5c'); echo $url; // output: again filename.txt but should be cfilename.txt // WHERE IS THE "C" CHARACTER?
