Stripping a string of certain characters

[Archbob]

Okay, the trim function doesn't do everything I need it to.

For instance I have these two strings or arrays:

127.0.0.1 localhost
192.168.200.200;

I tried trimming and splitng it by the space but it doesn't seem to work. You guys have any idea how to get rid of the localhost and the ; leaving only the IP address?

Hi,

IF you know what you are looking for, you could use the str_pos function to get the position of a specific string, and then substr to get a substring from the statrt up untill the occurance of the string you want to remove.
