string substr (string string, int start [, int length]) -----Original Message----- From: Donald [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Saturday, March 23, 2002 5:08 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [PHP] Get a specified amount of text?
In Visual Basic there is a function called left. usage: left(string, len) It allows you to get the first 'len' characters of 'string'. Is there a similar function in PHP? I have a value: "3.405" That I just want to crop to "3.40" If I pass "3.405" to MySQL it adds it like this: "3.41" Thanks -Donald -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
