Not Working

PHP Code:

---

$mobileno=$_POST['mobileno'];
$var = $mobileno;
substr_replace($var, '+44', 0, 0); 


---

Hi Guys,

Can anyone tell me why the above code doesn't seem to be working, it doesn't seem to be placing +44 at the beginning of $var and instead when the data is added to my database its without the +44.

Any help would be great.

Thanks.

I've managed to fix this myself by doing the following:

PHP Code:

---

$mobile2 = substr_replace($var, '+44', 0, 0); 


---

But how do i go about removing the forth digital in the variable. For example lets say the variable = '+441234567890'

How do i go about removing the forth value (1) from the variable?

Any help would be great.

Thanks

This is a quick "stab" at it, but this may work for you:

PHP Code:

---

$mobileno = $_POST['mobileno'];
$findme = '07';
$pos = strpos($mobileno, $findme);

    if($pos === 0)
    {
        $replace = $substr($mobileno,0,2);
        $newMobile=str_replace($replace, "+44",$mobileno);
    }
echo $newMobile;

You may want to try making $mobileno = to a number with "07" occurring more than once to make sure that only the first occurrence is replaced.

Adwarm,

Just out of curiosity, what kind of project are you working on? Seems cool.

yeah that doesn't work if there is more than one occurrence of "07" try this...

PHP Code:

---

$newMobile = substr_replace($mobileno,"+44",0,2);
