This dosen't quite do what  i need, this atually just displays the last 3 
characters of the string removing everything else, I wanted to do the 
opposite, but thanks anyways.

Why couldn't you use something like this:

$mystr = substr($mystr, -3);

Re: [PHP-DB] Need to delete charcters from a string

2002-02-07 Thread Jeroen Timmers

you can take the function substr from php in combination with strlen (lenght
of a string)

example

$string = "1234567890";
$rest = substr($string, 0, strlen($string)-3); // returns "1234567"

Success Jeroen Timmers
