Finding the Middle elements of a String

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi all,

Let's say the string is "apple,cherry,peach,pear" (not an array just a text string)

I see that I can use these (strpos & strripos) to search for the first or last "," - but how to I search for the ones in the middle (like third comma or 4th comma)?

strpos — Find the position of the first occurrence of a substring in a string

strripos — Find the position of the last occurrence of a case-insensitive substring in a string

Thanks in advance

ex:

$this1 = "apple,cherry,peach,pear";
$findme   = ',';
$pos = strpos($this1, $findme);
$pos2 = strripos($this1, $findme);


$showfirst = substr($this1, 0, $pos); 
$showlast = substr($this1, $pos2+1, 9999 );
