Are you running PHP6? The third parameter was added in version 6.

oh i looked at the documentation and it says php 4 and 5.

 

function username($id){

	$email = [email protected];
	$search = strpos($array['email'],'@') - 1;
	$len = strlen($email);
	$sub = substr($email,0,-($len-$search)+1);
return $sub;
}

 

this is the way i did it, those any  one have a better way?
