PHP 8.3.4 Released!

stristr

(PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7, PHP 8)

stristrstrstr() insensible a mayúsculas y minúsculas

Descripción

stristr(string $haystack, mixed $needle, bool $before_needle = false): string

Devuelve todo de haystack iniciando desde e incluyendo la primera aparición de needle hasta el final.

Parámetros

haystack

El string en donde buscar

needle

Si needle no es una cadena, se convierte a un entero y se aplica como el valor ordinal de un carácter. Este comportamiento está obsoleto a partir de PHP 7.3.0, por lo que su uso está totalmente desaconsejado. Dependiendo del comportamiento previsto, needle deberá ser convertido explícitamente a string, o realizar una llamada explícita a chr().

before_needle

Si es true, stristr() devuelve la parte del haystack anterior a la primera aparición del needle (excluyendo el needle).

needle y haystack se examinan de una manera insensible a mayúsculas y minúsculas.

Valores devueltos

Devuelve el substring coincidente. Si no se encuentra needle, devuelve false.

Historial de cambios

Versión Descripción
5.3.0 Agregado el parámetro opcional before_needle.
4.3.0 stristr() se hizo seguro a nivel binario.

Ejemplos

Ejemplo #1 Ejemplo de stristr()

<?php
$email
= 'USER@EXAMPLE.com';
echo
stristr($email, 'e'); // salida ER@EXAMPLE.com
echo stristr($email, 'e', true); // A partir de PHP 5.3.0, salida US
?>

Ejemplo #2 Probando si un string se encuentra o no

<?php
$string
= 'Hello World!';
if(
stristr($string, 'earth') === FALSE) {
echo
'"earth" not found in string';
}
// salida: "earth" not found in string
?>

Ejemplo #3 Utilizando un needle no "string"

<?php
$string
= 'APPLE';
echo
stristr($string, 97); // 97 = a minúscula
// salida: APPLE
?>

There was a change in PHP 4.2.3 that can cause a warning message
to be generated when using stristr(), even though no message was
generated in older versions of PHP.

The following will generate a warning message in 4.0.6 and 4.2.3:
stristr("haystack", "");
OR
$needle = ""; stristr("haystack", $needle);

This will _not_ generate an "Empty Delimiter" warning message in
4.0.6, but _will_ in 4.2.3:
unset($needle); stristr("haystack", $needle);

Here's a URL that documents what was changed:

Just been caught out by stristr trying to converting the needle from an Int to an ASCII value.

Got round this by casting the value to a string.

<?php
if( !stristr( $file, (string) $myCustomer->getCustomerID() ) ) {
// Permission denied
}
?>

An example for the stristr() function:

<?php
$a
= "I like php";
if (
stristr("$a", "LikE PhP")) {
print (
"According to \$a, you like PHP.");
}
?>

It will look in $a for "like php" (NOT case sensetive. though, strstr() is case-sensetive).

For the ones of you who uses linux.. It is similiar to the "grep" command.
Actually.. "grep -i".

<?php

function stristr_reverse($haystack, $needle) {
$pos = stripos($haystack, $needle) + strlen($needle);
return
substr($haystack, 0, $pos);
}
$email = 'USER@EXAMPLE.com';
echo
stristr_reverse($email, 'er');
// outputs USER

?>

I think there is a bug in php 5.3 in stristr with uppercase Ä containing other character

http://pastebin.com/5bP6uztY

if you search only with täry it works, but as soon as the word is tärylä it does not. TÄRYL works fine

handy little bit of code I wrote to take arguments from the command line and parse them for use in my apps.

<?php

$i
= implode(" ",$argv); //implode all the settings sent via clie
$e = explode("-",$i); // no lets explode it using our defined seperator '-'

//now lets parse the array and return the parameter name and its setting
// since the input is being sent by the user via the command line
//we will use stristr since we don't care about case sensitivity and
//will convert them as needed later.

while (list($index,$value) = each($e)){

//lets grap the parameter name first using a double reverse string
// to get the begining of the string in the array then reverse it again
// to set it back. we will also "trim" off the "=" sign

$param = rtrim(strrev(stristr(strrev($value),'=')),"=");

//now lets get what the parameter is set to.
// again "trimming" off the = sign

$setting = ltrim(stristr($value,'='),"=");

// now do something with our results.
// let's just echo them out so we can see that everything is working

echo "Array index is ".$index." and value is ".$value."\r\n";
echo
"Parameter is ".$param." and is set to ".$setting."\r\n\r\n";

}

?>

when run from the CLI this script returns the following.

[root@fedora4 ~]# php a.php -val1=one -val2=two -val3=three

Array index is 0 and value is a.php
Parameter is and is set to

Array index is 1 and value is val1=one
Parameter is val1 and is set to one

Array index is 2 and value is val2=two
Parameter is val2 and is set to two

Array index is 3 and value is val3=three
Parameter is val3 and is set to three

Beware the example given here:

if stristr($message,'viagra')
or stristr($message,'cialis')
)
{
die();
}

stristr does not search for words, it finds matching substrings. So, for example, the check for 'cialis' will trigger on 'specialist'
