PHP version of ASP Replace function

[opel]

Hi I am new to using PHP but have some experience of using ASP.

I want to be able to use PHP to carry out a task similar to ASP's replace function that will look at a string in a variable and replace the first instance it finds of it.

for example say my variable string is "t_image.jpg"

I would use (replace(<%imagestring&>)value,"t_","",1,1) which would change the string to now just being "image.jpg"

Is there a similiar function to this in PHP that will carry out the same task.

Thanks for your help.. ;D
