Strpos -- Find position of first occurrence of a string
Find the position where the character appears for the first time.
Syntax: int strpos (string haystack, mixed needle [, int offset])
Return value: integer
Function type: data processing
Description:
English:
Returns the numeric position of the first occurrence of needle in the haystack string. Unlike the strrpos (), this function can take a full string as the needle parameter and the entire string will be used.
If needle is not found, strpos () will return boolean FALSE.
If needle is not a string, it is converted to an integer and applied as the ordinal value of a character.
The optional offset parameter allows you to specify which character in haystack to start searching. The position returned is still relative to the beginning of haystack.
Chinese:
The position where the return parameter needle appears for the first time in the haystack string, expressed in numbers. Unlike strrpos (), this function can take all strings of the needle parameter and use all strings. If the needle parameter is not found, false is returned.
If the needle parameter is not a string, it is converted to an integer and used according to the character sequence value.
The offset parameter allows you to specify which character to start searching in the haystack. the returned position is still the starting point relative to the haystack.
* It is worth noting that the needle can only be one character, and it is not suitable for Chinese characters.
Example:
$mystring = 'abc';
$findme= 'a';
$pos = strpos($mystring, $findme);
// Note our use of ===.Simply == would not work as expected
// because the position of 'a' was the 0th (first) character.
if ($pos === false) {
echo "The string '$findme' was not found in the string '$mystring'\";
} else {
echo \"The string '$findme' was found in the string '$mystring'\";
echo \" and exists at position $pos\";
}
// We can search for the character, ignoring anything before the offset
$newstring = 'abcdef abcdef';
$pos = strpos($newstring, 'a', 1); // $pos = 7, not 0
?>
Comparison between strpos () and substr_count:
$mystring = "Hello Chris\";
if (substr_count($mystring, \"Hello\") == 0)
echo \"no\";
// same as:
if (strpos($mystring, \"Hello\") === false)
echo \"no\";
?>
Compare the following two codes. Note that numbers are prone to errors and numbers cannot be considered strings.
$val1=123;
$val2="123,456,789\";
if (strpos($val2, $val1)!==false) echo \"matched\";
else echo \"not matched\";
?>
The result is not matched.
$val1=(string)123;
$val2="123,456,789\";
if (strpos($val2, $val1)!==false) echo \"matched\";
else echo \"not matched\";
?>
The result is not matched.
