Does PHP have an equivalent to PERL's chop - that is, a way to get rid of the last character in a string? "Hello World" to "Hello Worl" Thanks in advance.

this might work, haven't tested it... second param is optional function chop($strSubject, $intWastage = 1) { $strRes = ""; $len = strlen($strSubject); if($intWastage <= $len && $intWastage >= ($len * (-1)))

    $strRes = substr($strSubject,0,$len - $intWastage);

return $strRes; }
