I needed a simple function to do what trim does, but with the second parameter acting as ADDITIONAL characters to trim, not the ONLY characters. nice and simple: <?php function mytrim($string, $params = null) { if ($params) { // double trim - one for $params, and then a regular trim $string = trim(trim($string, $params)); } else { $string = trim($string); } return $string; } ?> which can be further simplified, but helped me when i needed to remove trailing slashes from a path as well as other bits. ---- Server IP: 194.145.210.3 Probable Submitter: 86.154.64.0 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.trim.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/74585 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/74585/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/74585/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/74585/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/74585/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/74585/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/74585/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/74585 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/74585 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
