Re: [PHP] Phone number validation
Paul Goepfert [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] I didn't realize that those were single quotes. I printed out the email message and it looked like one set of double quotes for the second parameter rather the two single quotes. Is it possible for anyone to tell me what php method is used to grab the first charater of a string? And onece I have it what method removes the characted or number? I know this seems trivial but I am still new to php and I don't have a good understanding of the language yet. The more I do the better I'll get. Thanks Paul check out this page of the php manual for a few ideas.

Chuck, you are the man! I decided to reread the manual word for word but
have only gotten through Strings as of last night. Thanks for zeroing me in
on the right spot.

When I tried to run this, PHP treated the word -include- as a control

single quotes ('include') to see what would happen and it works fine. But
I don't understand why!
What is the difference between $content_row [include] and
$content_row['include']? I have been unable to resolve this question in
the php manual, I need enlightenment.

Integrity is obvious.
The lack of it is common.
