Note that this function will calculate the percentage blindly, without regard to the LENGHT of the string. This may become important if you try to print similar names to SMALL strings : e.g. I want to print out the value if it is 90 percent similar to the other one : the value is HE, the correct value is HEC The similar_text() function will return approximately 66.7 %, and it will not print it because it is smaller than 90 %, although almost all of the string was matched. ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.similar-text.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+43011 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+43011&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+43011&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
