taking all out of a variable?

[Nothadoth]

I have a question. At the moment I'm using a script to select and show all items from the database WHERE subcategoryname='$catmode'.

Now on some of the ones catmode will be something simple like "Hardware". That's easy.

However, i've had it so some of them are "All Hardware" (for example).

Is there anyway to put before the WHERE query a code that will say for instance something like.

if ($_GET['catmode'] contains "All ") {

$catmode = $_GET['catmode'] without "All ";

} else {

$catmode = $_GET['catmode'];

}



Obviously that wouldn't work. But is there some way I can do something like that? Or not?

One way,
[code]
<?php
if(strstr($_GET['catmode'], "All ")){
$catmode = str_replace("All ", "", $_GET['catmode']);
}
else{
$catmode = $_GET['catmode'];
}
?>
[/code]

It didn't work.

However it seams looking at my site that I don't actually need this code when I thought I did.

Thank you none the less :)
