Actually, if he uses a negative index in substr(), he doesn't need to know the length of the string.

No you don't.

RE: [PHP] remove last character in a string
Wouldn't it be better to check to see if charicater is indeed a comma before removing it? I was guessing eregi_replace would be the way to go. Am I thinking wrong?
