strpos and "

[northk]

i am having problems with strpos() and searching for double-quotes ( " )

strpos either gives back FALSE (yes, i use '===' to compare 😉) though there are quotes in the string or puts an backslash at the end of the string(!!!)..

strpos should not be able to change the string, i know. but it does 🙁

anyone can help me?

thanks in advance...

AH! I found a nice as hell function (which will help me A WHOLE LOT!!) Thank you thank you thank you for posting the question! here is the fix!

<?php
$string = "BLah blah blah \" blah blah \"";
$position = strpos($string, chr(34));
echo $position;
?>

Use chr(34) to look for double quotes ", but it still only looks for the first one... You might want to use a different function, hope it helps!

thank you!

chr(34) also would have worked... i use \" now, what should be the same.
and strpos() doesn't add a backslash 😉
.. that was my own fault..
