[PHP] Can anyone help me out? I am really getting frustrated!

2002-08-15 Thread Mike 

Hello all,
I am very confused. This script that I have been working on for a while
is giving me a hard time...

$string = Current song: 01. DJ Nightflight - The first flight (original
\
mix) (D I G I T A L L Y - I M P O R T E D - European Trance, Techno,
Hi-\
NRG... we can't define it!);

if(substr($string,0,1) = C){
print made it past substr!br\n;
$TrackName = trim(substr($string,strpos($string,.)+1));
}
The problem is that it never gets past the substr in the if(...)
statement, therefore never setting $TrackName.

I am really lost on what to do, any help would be appreciated.

Thank You,
Mike

You're assigning, not comparing here.
Should be:
  if(substr($string,0,1) == C){

If you write these like this:
  if(C = substr($string,0,1)) {

Php will give a parse error because you can't assign a value to a constant.

   print made it past substr!br\n;
   $TrackName = trim(substr($string,strpos($string,.)+1));
 }
