splitting a string

[buraks78]

hi all

i need to split a string by using php

for instance;

the string is "unitedstates" and i need the first 6 characters from the left. the result should be "united"

i know i can do it by using the Left function in sql but i need a function in php.

is there any function like that in php? 😕

Kindest Regards..

Try...

$foo = 'unitedstates';
echo substr($foo,0,6);
