Re: Getting the Leftmost 7 Characters of String

substr($string, $start, $length); substr("Hello World", 0, 5); // outputs "Hello" In your case, a regexp will be necessary because you do not know exactly the number of characters in a class C: Notice the different lengths: 111.111.111.111 11.11.11.11 1.1.1.1 I see someone just posted on the list with the proper regex to do it. I think it's probably the best way. -- Matthew Leverton - matthew@aeroinc.net - http://www.allegro.cc -----Original Message----- From: Graham Pearson <gpearson@support.niesc.k12.in.us> To: php-general@lists.php.net <php-general@lists.php.net> Date: Wednesday, June 28, 2000 3:01 PM Subject: [PHP] Getting the Leftmost 7 Characters of String >Group: > >I have been trying to acquire via php the class c address of a specific >$REMOTE_ADDR variable.
