Thank you. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2014-01-23 23:19:27] requinix@php.net The offset controls the start or end point for the search: positive offset is the ending point, negative offset is the starting point (from the end). So $offset=5 means to search from the end towards the beginning as usual but to stop at offset 5, and $offset=-5 means to search from offset ending-5 to the beginning. According to that, the documentation should be changed to read like >offset -> If specified, search will start this number of characters counted from the +> If specified, search will end this number of characters counted from the > beginning of the string. If the value is negative, search will instead start > from that many characters from the end of the string, searching backwards. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2014-01-23 22:32:01] myselfasunder at gmail dot com Description: ------------ The documentation indicates that the offset describes the number of characters from the front of the string, and that the search will -start- at the offset and move toward the beginning. However, the offset seems to be ignored. Test script: --------------- $buffer = '01234567890123456789'; var_dump(strrpos($buffer, '0', 5)); Expected result: ---------------- int(0) Actual result: -------------- int(10) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=66563&edit=1
