Removing words in a string

[dominod]

Hi

 

I want to remove words that end with : within a string.

 

For example if I write "test: 1234" it will remove "test:" and only echo "1234"

 

Can anyone help me with this?

 

Thanks in advance

What happened to the space after "test:"?

If thats what u mean?

Sounds like a job for a regular expression.

What do u mean?

Are there more words in the string? If not, you can use the explode function:

<?php
$str = "word: 1234";
$tmp = explode(':',$str);
echo $tmp[1];
?>

or

<?php
$str = 'word: 1234';
list($dmy,$word) = explode(':',$str);
echo $word;
?>
