54255 views 2 years ago PHP

You can use the PHP strpos() function to check whether a string contains a specific word or not.

The strpos() the function returns the position of the first occurrence of a substring in a string. If the substring is not found it returns false. Also note that string positions start at 0, and not 1.

Let's check out an example to understand how this function basically works:

<?php
$word = "find";
$mystring = "how to find char from string in php";
// Test if string contains the word 
if(strpos($mystring, $word) !== false){
    echo "Yes found that";
} else{
    echo "Not Found!";
}

i hop it can be help lot.
