I often need to find out the nearest position of whatever character contained in an array. Because I
couldn't find an implemented PHP function, I wrote the following:
<?php
function findnextocc($hay, $needle=array('"','"'), $startpos=0) {
// Finds nearest position of whatever char insite the needle array
// (C) ZANA digital | http://www.unbeirrbareinenwegverfolgen.de/
$nil=strlen($hay); $min=$nil; $mkey='';
foreach ($needle as $key => $value) {
$i=strpos($hay,$value,$startpos);
if (($i!==false) and ($i<$min)) { $min=$i; $mkey=$value; }
}
if ($min!=$nil) return array($min,$mkey);
return false;
}
?>
