Word Trimming

[dietkinnie]

Hi Guys & Gals!!

 

Hope you are all ok....

 

I need some help with the following

 

I need to trim the following word as follows:

 

$word = 'James Bond';

 

output would be 'James B'

 

There is a space between all of the words I need to trim...

 

Any suggestion??

 

Thanks in advance..

Perhaps easiest to use reg exp:

 

<?php

$word = 'James Bond';

preg_match('/[a-z]+ [a-z]{1}/i', $word, $match);

print $match[0];

?>

 

Of course, this will only work with strictly a-z characters.

<?php
$word = 'James Bond';
$word = substr($word,0,strpos($word," ")+2);
print $word;
?>
