[Resolved] check if first char in string is "

[punch]

I try to check if a string (a line from a .csv file) has got an " as first char. I've tried some things but won't succeed. This is the part of code i have for now:

if (ereg ("^\"", $Tekstblok1)) { $Tekstblok1 .= substr($waarde, 1, -1);
} else { $Tekstblok1 .= $waarde;
}

I can use some help here 😉

the check whether the first char is an "-char can be performed like this:

if($string{0} == "\"")
// Do whatever u wanna do

Using the curly bracket syntax, u can get every single char of the string as if it were an element of an array, just put the number of the char (indexing starts with 0, so do be careful) between curly brackets after the variable.
