Changing to documentation problem. Will fix shortly. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-01-04 19:03:34] elixer@php.net Please create a php file with the following content, the version number of PHP will appear in the output: <?php phpinfo(); ?> Let us know what version you are on. Sean ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2001-12-27 02:35:26] s371117@student.uq.edu.au This code does not appear to work (it is almost a cut and paste from the manual with the token changed). From experimentation I think it is beacause the token is two characters long. I am not sure if this is a bug or a undocumented property of this function. $string = "This is an example string"; $tok = strtok($string,"%s"); while ($tok) { echo "Word=$tok<br>"; $tok = strtok("%s"); } I am sorry I can't be sure of the version of PHP on this server. I only have ftp access. Thanks for such a great product! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=14714&edit=1
