mb_strrpos — Find position of last occurrence of a string in a string

Description

int mb_strrpos ( string $haystack , string $needle [, int $offset [, string $encoding ]] )

Performs a multibyte safe strrpos() operation based on the number of characters. needle position is counted from the beginning of haystack. First character's position is 0. Second character position is 1.

Parameters

haystack

The string being checked, for the last occurrence of needle

needle

The string to find in haystack.

offset

May be specified to begin searching an arbitrary number of characters into the string. Negative values will stop searching at an arbitrary point prior to the end of the string.

encoding

The encoding parameter is the character encoding. If it is omitted, the internal character encoding value will be used.

Return Values

Returns the numeric position of the last occurrence of needle in the haystack string. If needle is not found, it returns FALSE.

Changelog

Version	Description
5.2.0	Added the optional parameter offset.

Notes

Note: The encoding parameter was moved from the third position to the fourth in PHP 5.2.0. For backward compatibility, encoding can be specified as the third parameter, but doing so is deprecated and will be removed in the future.

Note:

The internal encoding or the character encoding specified by mb_regex_encoding() will be used as the character encoding for this function.
