note 40726 added to function.strpos

Here is an example of removal illegal symbols from string in array. It works much faster than code with regexp usage: $text='This $tring cont@in$ ## of i\\lega\\ symb*ls'; $illegal=array('@',"$",'^','*','#','\\\\',':',';','<','>'); $garb=array(); foreach($illegal as $k) while(($j=strpos($text,$k))!==false){$garb[]=$text{$j}; $text=substr($text,0,$j).substr($text,$j+1);} $garb=array_unique($garb); after that $text will contain "This tring contin s of ilega symbls" and in $garb there will be @$*#\\ symbols. ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.strpos.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+40726 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+40726&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+40726&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
