At php.net, the following paragraph is the first thing in the definition of
strpos:
"Returns the numeric position of the first occurrence of needle in the
haystack string. Unlike the strrpos() before PHP 5, this function can take a
full string as the needle parameter and the entire string will be used."
I find the reference to "strrpos" confusing, coming this early in the
definition. This is the definition of strpos, not strrpos. That is, the
paragraph would make a lot more sense if it read:
"Returns the numeric position of the first occurrence of needle in the
haystack string."
Dragging in "strrpos", which used to have a restriction on "needle", seems
pointless, and worse, confusing.
But, before I report this as a problem, I'd appreciate some feedback on
this. If I'm the only person who finds this confusing, I'll just go away
and be quietly confused.
