PHP versions before 4.3.0 (tested on 4.2.2 and 4.2.3) return the $haystack from $needle only up to the first null character. So for example: $string = strstr("one#two\x00three", "#"); // PHP 4.2.x: $string contains "#two" // PHP 4.3.0: $string contains "#two\x00three" If you're trying to match nulls, you will probably get back an empty string: $string = strstr("one#two\x00three", "\x00"); // PHP 4.2.x: $string contains "" // PHP 4.3.0: $string contains "\x00three" -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.strstr.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+29488 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+29488 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+29488
