position of a delimiter

[robertlerenard]

I want to find the first space after the 60th characters?

Exactly I want to find the accurate position of a delimiter within a defined string, but only after the 60th letter!

Thanks for replying 😕

Hey just use substr.

here is the var that holds you string say $string

then u go

$anothervar = substr($string,60);

[kevinsequeira]

use substr() to cut the string up to the 60th character
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.substr.php

then use strpos() to search for the " " character

http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.strpos.php

$your_string = " blah blah .......";
$temp_string = substr($your_string,60);
echo strpos($temp_string," ");
