Why not just use str_replace to replace all white spaces? (if that's what you're after)

Im looking to get rid of everything after and including the #

 

Could anyone write my the function to do this?

 

thanks

I think the shortest and easiest way to do this would be to strip white spaces from the string completely, if that's what you're trying to achieve.

 

<?php
$str = "hello# myname is#meh";
$str = str_replace(" ", "", $str);
?>

$input = 'hello#hello';

$hello = strstr($input, '#', TRUE); // PHP 5.3+
$hello = strtok($input, '#');       // PHP 3+
