note 114784 added to function.substr

Frequently we want to check whether one string ends with (or starts with) another. These may be useful: function str_ends($string,$end){ return (substr($string,-strlen($end),strlen($end)) === $end); } function str_begins($string,$start){ return (substr($string,0,strlen($start)) === $start); } Example: if (str_ends ($filename, ".jpg")){ echo "The extension is .jpg"; } ---- Server IP: 87.117.229.81 Probable Submitter: 87.194.171.29 ---- Manual Page -- http://php.net/manual/en/function.substr.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/114784 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/114784/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/114784/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/114784/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/114784/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/114784/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/114784/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/114784 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/114784 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
