[snip] Can anyone help with this ? its checking the $_POST and seeing if any of the items begin with answer_, if the do it should remove it from the beginning and place it into $value_new.. does not seem to work though... foreach($_POST as $qid => $value) { $findme = 'answer_'; if(stripos($value, $findme)) { $value_new = ltrim($value); print "$value_new<br>"; } } [/snip] stripos should be strops and would look for a numeric value, not what you want. You want strstr I believe foreach($_POST as $qid => $value) { $findme = 'answer_'; if(strstr($value, $findme)) { $value_new = ltrim($value); print "$value_new<br>"; } }
