Actually:
$str = "aaa bbb ccc";
$str = substr($str,0,9);
echo strrpos($str," ");
Outputs 8 :) There is a mistake, though:
instead of
$str = substr($str,0,strrpos(trim($str)," "));
it should be
$str1 = trim(substr($str,0,strrpos($str," ")));
Otherwise if it's trimmed first, it'll become "aaa bbb" and strrpos will
return 3, resulting in "aaa" :)
