Note Submitter: janklopper.at.gmail.dot.com ---- This is a better (altough untested) version of the lastword function, is searches from the end back to the begin until it finds seperator, and thus only searches the smalest possible part of the string. very helpfull for large strings. function lastword($string,$seperator=" ") {//last word of a string $count=strlen($string); $count--; for($i=$count;$i--;$i==0){ if($string[$i]==$seperator){ $location=$i-($i*2); return substr($string,$location); } } return; }
