Description #

string strstr ( string $haystack , mixed $needle [, bool $before_needle = false ] )

Returns part of haystack string starting from and including the first occurrence of needle to the end of haystack.

This function is case-sensitive. For case-insensitive searches, use stristr().

If you only want to determine if a particular needle occurs within haystack, use the faster and less memory intensive function strpos() instead.

Parameters #

haystack

The input string.

needle

If needle is not a string, it is converted to an integer and applied as the ordinal value of a character.

before_needle

If TRUE, strstr() returns the part of the haystack before the first occurrence of the needle (excluding the needle).

Return Values #

Returns the portion of string, or FALSE if needle is not found.

Examples #

Example #1 strstr() example

<?php
$email  
'name@example.com';
$domain strstr($email'@');
echo 
$domain// prints @example.com

$user strstr($email'@'true); // As of PHP 5.3.0
echo $user// prints name
?>

Changelog #

Version Description
