Doc #64861 [Opn]: [DE] Error in strripos() German translation

Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=64861&edit=1 ID: 64861 Updated by: cmb@php.net Reported by: eproskawetz at t-online dot de Summary: [DE] Error in strripos() German translation Status: Open Type: Documentation Problem Package: Translation problem Operating System: Windows PHP Version: 5.5.0RC1 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: > The wording is super confusing here. After having reconsidered this issue in the meantime, I have to agree. It appears to me that the original needs improvement, too. Actually, the search always works backwards[1] (what might be regarded as an implementation detail, but searching forwards for the last occurance wouldn't make sense). Describing it this way, might simplify the explanation. See also bug #50317. Anyhow, related to bug #68010.

What about this alternative: Wenn angegeben beginnt die Suche bei angegebener Position von Beginn des Strings an gezählt. Sollte der Wert negativ sein startet die Suche selbige Anzahl von Zeichen vor Ende des Strings und sucht rückwärts. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2015-03-02 19:35:21] cmbecker69 at gmx dot de > This says, that the search stop at the position offset if the > value is positiv and if the value is negativ it starts at > strlen-offset. Yes. And that is how the $offset parameter is supposed to work, see the examples given for strrpos(). The German translation is correct, albeit somewhat clumsy. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2013-05-16 14:33:28] eproskawetz at t-online dot de Description: ------------ --- From manual page: http://www.php.net/function.strripos#refsect1-function.strripos-parameters --- Test script: --------------- offset Wenn angegeben, wird die Suche diese Anzahl an Buchstaben vom Anfang des Strings gezählt stoppen. Wenn der Wert negativ ist, startet die Suche stattdessen diese Anzahl an Zeichen vom Ende des Strings aus. This says, that the search stop at the position offset if the value is positiv and if the value is negativ it starts at strlen-offset. Correct would be: Wenn angegeben, wird die Suche diese Anzahl an Buchstaben vom Ende des Strings gezählt stoppen. Wenn der Wert negativ ist, endet die Suche stattdessen diese Anzahl an Zeichen vom Anfang des Strings aus. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=64861&edit=1
