Re: strange stripos behavior

Thanks for the suggestion.  I ended up not building the search string
and checking each part individually.  

FYI, I had noticed that it also depended on what order I built the
search string; e.g., $searchstring = $msg->Body() . $msg->Subject()... 
worked ok but if I put $msg->Subject first it didn't.  Is it possible
that if $msg->Subject is null that it does something funny to the value
in the $searchstring variable?

Anyway, it's working now by not using a variable.  Thanks again.



Regards,

Bruce

Too much beer to think through the logical progression of the
operators,
but maybe try:

if (stripos($searchtext, 'xxxx') !== false) {
