Description

int mb_strpos ( string haystack, string needle [, int offset [, string encoding]])

mb_strpos() returns the numeric position of the first occurrence of needle in the haystack string. If needle is not found, it returns FALSE .

mb_strpos() performs multi-byte safe strpos() operation based on number of characters. needle position is counted from the beginning of the haystack . First character's position is 0. Second character position is 1, and so on.

If encoding is omitted, internal character encoding is used. mb_strrpos() accepts string for needle where strrpos() accepts only character.

offset is search offset. If it is not specified, 0 is used.

encoding is character encoding name. If it is omitted, internal character encoding is used.
