Re: Check if a word is in my string.

if you're just looking for the 1st occurrence of the string, it's-- $check = "good"; $var = "This is a good..."; if (!strstr($var, $check)) { print("$check not found"); } also, i think strstr() is case-insensitive, so it won't be able to differentiate between 'Good' and 'good', and will NOT return FALSE if 'Good' precedes 'good' in the string... -dj --- Brandon Orther <orther@webintellects.com> wrote: > Hello, > > I have a variable with a string in it.
