[Destramic]

ive used trim to get rid of the end of a a string and it takes an extra character off it anyone can help please

 

$class_name       = "League_Model";
	echo $model_name       = trim($class_name, "_Model");

 

result:  Leagu

 

im want it to return: league

You probably want to use SUBSTR:

 

$class_name = "League_Model";
echo $model_name = substr($class_name,0,6);

trim()'s second argument is a LIST of characters to remove, not a STRING to remove.

 

You can use substr or simply str_replace:

$a = str_replace("_league". '', $a);
