donot you think you program will just bring the server to its foot ,if the
text message encountered is very large of order of 40 KB or
larger.is<http://larger.is>there any other efficient method.
40KB isn't large... now, when you're talking about hundreds of MBs of
text, then it gets large :) 40KB, with that method, is nothing...
It's a bit of a dirty hack though. If I compare a 2 character text
against a 40k text, the error handler will be invoked (39998 * 3) times
if $text1 is the 2 byte string. That's extremely inefficient. I don't
think I've ever seen error suppression abused so badly to prevent
writing an extra line or 2 using isset().

I agree with what you said fully; however, even though that's the case,
and it indeed could be written a lot faster and cleaner, it would not
pose a problem on most systems. That was the point I tried to make ;)
