I'm not necessarily against adding these functions to the language, but they seem ripe for a well-adopted userland library. As such, I'm on the fence about whether these belong in core. Cheers, BenIt's been 14 days since the last change to the RFC and there have been no further discussions, so the cooldown period is over and I would like to announce the start of the voting Link to the RFC for reference: https://wiki.php.net/rfc/prefix_suffix_functionsSorry for my late feedback. What's the rationale for $subject being the last parameter only in str_prefix_replace() and str_suffix_replace()? I feel pretty strongly that the subject should always be the first parameter. We don't want to add to the classic haystack/needle confusion. Regards, Ilija
