note 25127 deleted from function.strpos by didou

Note Submitter: teddy at teddy dot com ---- In addition to cerium@x2productions.net: I always use the following function instead of strpos: function strpos2 ($s, $needle) { $pos = strpos($s, $needle); if ($pos === false) return -1; else return $pos; } So I can easily use it the following way: $pos = strpos2($string, $needle); if ($pos >= 0) { // found } else { // not found } or also possible: $pos = strpos2($string, $needle); for ($i = 0; $pos >= $i; $i++) { // do until position } Teddy Editor's Note: By testing explicitly for FALSE using the strict comparison operators (=== and !==), you can get the same result (and still be able to a faster built-in function :) i.e. $pos = strpos($string, $needle); if (FALSE !== $pos) { // found } else { // not found } ---- Reason: bad code
