note 104614 added to function.substr

I used the following to return the first word in a string of words up to the first occurence of a delimiter character. $firstWord = substr($wString, 0, -strlen($wString, $delimiter); For example: for $wString = "This is great"; $delimiter = " "; Then $firstWord = "This" Cheers.
