note 90184 added to function.strpos

Hi guys I found a simple solution for wildcard strpos here is the function : function strposw($search,$subject) { $pattern = '/^'.$search.'/'; $len=strlen($subject); for( $i=0;$i<=$len;$i++) { preg_match($pattern, substr($subject,$i), $matches, PREG_OFFSET_CAPTURE); if ($matches[0]) return $i; } return 0; } echo strposw('def','abcdef'); it shows that the position is 3 ; ---- Server IP: 89.190.194.18 Probable Submitter: 217.9.226.166 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.strpos.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/90184 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/90184/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/90184/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/90184/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/90184/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/90184/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/90184/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/90184 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/90184 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
