Note Submitter: duke as mastre dot com ---- strstr(), strchr(), strrchr() _and_ stristr() are _all_ broken as of 4.2.3: $haystack = 'John Doe <john@doe.com>'; $needle_broken = '<'; $needle_ok = '@'; echo('haystack: ' . htmlspecialchars($haystack) . '<br />'); echo('strstr using needle_broken: ' . strstr($haystack, $needle_broken) . '<br />'); echo('strstr using needle_ok: ' . strstr($haystack, $needle_ok) . '<br />'); output: broken: ok: @doe.com> only function that works properly with this caracter (also '>' and possibly others) is strpos()
