This function (for PHP 4.3.0+) uses preg_match to return the regex position (like strpos, but using
a regex pattern instead):
function preg_pos($sPattern, $sSubject, &$FoundString, $iOffset = 0) {
$FoundString = NULL;
if (preg_match($sPattern, $sSubject, $aMatches, PREG_OFFSET_CAPTURE, $iOffset) > 0) {
$FoundString = $aMatches[0][0];
return $aMatches[0][1];
}
else {
return FALSE;
}
}
It also returns the actual string found using the pattern, via $FoundString.
