this checks for $pos beeing not a string (it is a number than) and $pos beeing false (meaning 0 or
empty). though this would check if $needle was found at the first position of $haystack.
this worked fine for me:
$pos = strpos($haystack, $needle);
if ((string)$pos != "") {
//found
}
$pos = strpos($haystack, $needle);
if ((string)$pos == "") {
//not found
}
some of the above mentioned variants didn't work for me.
i don't think that -1 is a good way to alter the function because all the old applications
wouldn't work anymore.
up to me the === is sufficient :-)
