Note Submitter: talthen at wp dot pl ---- Because I like the way pascal functions work, so I created this little function: function paspos($base,$findme) { $result=strpos($base,$findme); if ($result===false) $result=-1; return $result; } It returns -1 if the $findme may not be found in $base, or position where $findme was found in $base. Now when you want to check if $base starts from $findme you can just type: if (paspos($string,$searchfor)==0)) .... Hope you'll like it :)
