Hi, I was just in the #php irc channel and I asked 'how to strip all non-text characters from a string' and two minutes later another guy comes in and asks the same q', there is 'trim()' but it only does starts and ends, there is a function in unix that is called 'strings' that does approx this, can you look into it do you think, and if you do, maybe make it so it can be used the other way around too (strip all text), maybe call it 'strip_notext' or so thanks, Re -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=21922&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21922&r=trysnapshot Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21922&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21922&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21922&r=needtrace Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21922&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21922&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21922&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21922&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21922&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21922&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21922&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21922&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21922&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=21922&r=gnused
