# strrchr

(PHP 3, PHP 4, PHP 5)

strrchr -- Находит последнее вхождение подстроки

## Описание

string strrchr ( string haystack, char needle )

Возвращает подстроку строки `haystack` начиная с последнего вхождения `needle` до конца строки.

Если подстрока `needle` не найдена, возвращает `FALSE`.

В отличие от strchr(), если `needle` состоит более чем из одного символа, используется только первый символ.

Если `needle` не является строкой, он приводится к целому и трактуется как код символа.

Пример 1. Пример использования strrchr()

`<?php
// получить последнюю директорию из $PATH
$dir = substr(strrchr($PATH, ":"), 1);
// получить все после последнего перевода строки
$text = "Line 1\nLine 2\nLine 3";
$last = substr(strrchr($text, 10), 1 );
?>`

С версии PHP 4.3.0 strrchr() безопасна для обработки данных в двоичной форме.

`to: repley at freemail dot it
the code works very well, but as i was trying to cut script names (e.g.: $_SERVER["SCRIPT_NAME"] => /index.php, cut the string at "/" and return "index.php") it returned nothing (false). i've modified your code and now it works also if the needle is the first char.

`just a small addition to carlos dot lage at gmail dot com note which makes it a bit more useful and flexible:
<?php
// return everything up to last instance of needle
// use $trail to include needle chars including and past last needle
function reverse_strrchr($haystack, $needle, $trail) {
return strrpos($haystack, $needle) ? substr($haystack, 0, strrpos($haystack, $needle) + $trail) : false;
}
// usage:
$ns = (reverse_strrchr($_SERVER["SCRIPT_URI"], "/", 0));
$ns2 = (reverse_strrchr($_SERVER["SCRIPT_URI"], "/", 1));
echo($ns . "<br>" . $ns2);
?>`

`to marcokonopacki at hotmail dot com.
I had to make a slight change in your function for it to return the complete needle inclusive.
// Reverse search of strrchr.
function strrrchr($haystack,$needle)
{
// Returns everything before $needle (inclusive).
//return substr($haystack,0,strpos($haystack,$needle)+1);
// becomes
return substr($haystack,0,strpos($haystack,$needle)+strlen($needle));
}
Note: the +1 becomes +strlen($needle)
Otherwise it only returns the first character in needle backwards.`

`A quick way to get file's extension (if it has one, otherwise you get an empty string), which can be used when you want to rename the file but keep the old extension. Or for similar purposes. Temporary variable is used just because it's slightly faster to store the value than to run the strrchr() function again.
<?php
$ext = substr(($t=strrchr("file.ext",'.'))!==false?$t:'',1);
?>`

`I used dchris1 at bigpond dot net dot au 's reverse strrchr and reduced it to one line of code and fixed it's functionality - the real strrchr() returns FALSE if the needle is not found, not the haystack :)
<?php
// reverse strrchr()
function reverse_strrchr($haystack, $needle)
{
return strrpos($haystack, $needle) ? substr($haystack, 0, strrpos($haystack, $needle) +1 ) : false;
}
?>`

`The function provided by marcokonopacki at hotmail dot com isn't really a reverse-version of strrchr(), rather a reverse version of strchr(). It returns everything from the start of $haystack up to the FIRST instance of the $needle. This is basically a reverse of the behavior which you expect from strchr(). A reverse version of strrchr() would return everything in $haystack up to the LAST instance of $needle, eg:
<?php
// reverse strrchr() - PHP v4.0b3 and above
function reverse_strrchr($haystack, $needle)
{
$pos = strrpos($haystack, $needle);
if($pos === false) {
return $haystack;
}
return substr($haystack, 0, $pos + 1);
}
?>
Note that this function will need to be modified slightly to work with pre 4.0b3 versions of PHP due to the return type of strrpos() ('0' is not necessarily 'false'). Check the documentation on strrpos() for more info.
A function like this can be useful for extracting the path to a script, for example:
<?
$string = "/path/to/the/file/filename.php";
echo reverse_strrchr($string, '/'); // will echo "/path/to/the/file/"
?>`

`strrchr is also very useful for finding the extension of a file. For example:
$ext = strrchr($filename, ".");
and $ext will contain the extension of the file, including a ".", if the file has an extension, and FALSE if the file has no extension. If the file has multiple extensions, such as "evilfile.jpg.vbs", then this construction will just return the last extension.`

echo strrrchr($string,")"); // Will print FIELD (9)
