mb_strpos — Find position of first occurrence of string in a string
Finds position of the first occurrence of needle in the haystack string.
Performs a multi-byte safe strpos() operation based on number of characters. The first character's position is 0, the second character position is 1, and so on.
haystack
The string from which to get the position of the first occurrence
of needle.
needle
The string to find in haystack. In contrast
with strpos(), numeric values are not applied
as the ordinal value of a character.
offsetThe search offset. If it is not specified, 0 is used. A negative offset counts from the end of the string.
encodingThe encoding
parameter is the character encoding. If it is omitted or null, the internal character
encoding value will be used.
Returns the numeric position of
the first occurrence of needle in the
haystack string. If
needle is not found, it returns false.
offset is greater than the length of
haystack, a
ValueError will be thrown.
