Thanks Chris, that works great, but it's not doing what I want. I'm just trying to get the position of the 3rd occurrence (for example) of '<br>'. So I'm looking for a function that will return the value 19, given the above example string.
From your first post, you just want to remove everything after a certain occurrence. I don't understand why explode won't work for you. As in,
<? $string = 'one<br>two<br>three<br>four<br>five'; $nthPos = 4;
$tmpArr = explode( '<br>', $string );
$newArr = array_slice($tmpArr,0,$nthPos-1);
$shortString = implode('<br>',$newArr);?>
A function that would give you the position to truncate from would be shorter. But, I don't seem to be finding that function either. So, the above seems like a solution.
