Bug #13533 Updated: new function

ID: 13533 User updated by: e@arix.com Reported By: e@arix.com Old Status: Feedback Status: Open Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Operating System: Linux PHP Version: 4.0.6 New Comment: strset("This is a sample haystack", "ixbt") returns 3 because "i" was found in the haystack. strset("This is a sample haystack", "xbt") returns 0 because none of the characters in "xbt" are found in the haystack strset("This is a sample haystack", "xbts") returns 4 because it finds it at the end of "this" syntax: strset(haystack, needles) essentially strset is a function that iterates through the needles testing for the presence of each in the haystack.
