Bug description: Improving substr()
I am currently using the following PHP Code to get a substring from a string, that is
delimited by two given strings, $start and $end:
function my_substr($start, $end, &$string) {
$start = preg_quote($start);
$end = preg_quote($end);
preg_match("#$start(.*?)$end#", $string, $result);
return $result[1];
}
It would be great if PHP's substr() function could handle operations like this, by
changing its signature accordingly, maybe to
string substr (string string, mixed start [, mixed end])
