String question - HELP!!!

[ghostwalkz]

I have a string:

 

$string = "somestuffthatchanges.somemorestuffthatchanges";

 

How can I strip everything before the first occurence of the period so it leaves me with just 'somemorestuffthatchanges'?

 

 

 

 

[premiso]

explode

 

$string = "somestuff.otherstuff";
list(, $string) = explode(".", $string);

echo $string;

[ghostwalkz]

That almost works,

 

but.. if my string has 2 periods eg:

 

$string = "somestuff.morestuff,finalstuff";

 

You solution only returns 'morestuff' whereas I need 'morestuff.finalstuff'

 

If that makes any sense? Thanks for the help BTW! ;-)

[premiso]

$string = "test.test.test.s";
$string = strstr($string, ".");
echo $string;

 

To remove the initial period you can make use of substr.
