Bug description: Clarify that trim(),ltrim(),rtrim() will trim ANY character
in charlist
Description:
------------
Please clarify what the trim() functions actually do if the charlist
argument is present:
ltrim('deeds', 'ed');
returns:
's'
EACH single character in charlist is trimmed from the beginning of the
string, REPEATEDLY.
Please include this (or something similar) as a usage example in the
docs!
There are already 2 false bug reports filed from people who obviously
misunderstood how these functions work:
http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=35584
http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=22217
To figure this out just gave me an hour-long headache ;-)
