note 24572 added to function.substr

This returns the string between 2 delimiters: Example: $haystack = 'please<a href="/manual/add-note.php">click here</a>'; $start = '<a href="'; $end = '">'; $found = get_string($haystack, $start, $end); echo $found; prints: /manual/add-note.php NOTE -- NO ERROR CHECKING IS DONE! -------------- function get_string($h, $s, $e) { $sp = strpos($h, $s, 0) + strlen($s); $ep = strpos($h, $e, 0); return substr($h, $sp, $ep-$sp); } ---------------------- Quick and dirty...
