mcloan Posted December 2, 2006 Share Posted December 2, 2006 Is there a way to use strpos or a similar function to find a location and go backwards to another location. i.e. 11234 Blank St, Houston, TX USASo starting from $position=strpos($line, "USA") would there be away to find the second comma going back from USA with a strpos or similar function. I want to prevent from counting character positions if possible.Thank you. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/29181-strpos-function/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
taith Posted December 2, 2006 Share Posted December 2, 2006 if theres always 2 commas... then this would skip the first...[code]$pos=strpos($line,",");$pos=strpos($line,",",$pos+1);[/code]that'll tell you exactly where the 2nd comma is.
