Another way to describe strspn() is by analogy to regular expressions: <?php // where ... is the $mask of characters to match preg_match("/^[ ... ]*/", substr($subject, $start, $length) ); ?> strspn() returns the number of characters matched, with zero indicating no match whatsoever, and $length indicating a complete match. Any other value indicates a partial match, which may or may not be useful depending on your needs. ---- Server IP: 192.41.40.227 Probable Submitter: 67.237.228.46 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.strspn.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/94109 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/94109/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/94109/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/94109/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/94109/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/94109/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/94109/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/94109 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/94109 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
