two useful functions that I use and make life a tad easier:
<?php
//returns $length characters from the left of $string
function left($string, $length) {
return substr($string, 0, $length);
}
//returns $length characters from the right of $string
function right($string, $length) {
return substr($string, -$length, $length);
}
?>
