I have a form which have <select> tag which have the value for example "-New York". When use submit the form , i need to find the first occurence of "-" , i use strpos function as shown below : $country = $_POST['country']; $findme = '-'; $pos = strpos($country, $findme); if ($pos === false) {

       $_logger->logdebug("starting ....searchChassisTblDB() not found");

} else {

       $_logger->logdebug("starting ....searchChassisTblDB() found");

} however it always give false . I did not know why. Then i did a testing , added below code in the php file without form submission, it give true value which what i wanted. Anybody have ideas or suggestion what happening ?

Perhaps there is a problem with the HTML for your select box. var_dump($_POST) in your PHP code to check if the value is being sent correctly. Rabin
