For those who use right-to-left languages such as Arabic, Hebrew, etc., it's worth mentioning that ltrim() (which stands for left trim) & rtrim() (which stands for right trim) DO NOT work contextually. The nomenclature is rather semantically incorrect. So in an RTL script, ltrim() will trim text from the right direction (i.e. beginning of RTL strings), and rtrim() will trim text from the left direction (i.e. end of RTL strings). ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 41.209.72.23 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.ltrim.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/80863 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/80863/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/80863/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/80863/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/80863/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/80863/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/80863/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/80863 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/80863 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
