string trim ( string $str [, string $charlist = ” \t\n\r\0\x0B” ] )
This function returns the string str with leading and trailing whitespace characters removed. If the second parameter is not specified, trim() will strip these characters:
1.” ” (ASCII 32 (0x20)), the normal space character.
2. “\t” (ASCII 9 (0x09)), the tab character.
3. "\n" (ASCII 10 (0x0A)), a newline character.
4. “\r” (ASCII 13 (0x0D)), carriage return.
5. "\0" (ASCII 0 (0x00)), the null byte character.
6. "\x0B" (ASCII 11 (0x0B)), vertical tab character.
<?php $text = "\t\tThese are a few words :) ... "; $binary = "\x09Example string\x0A"; $hello = "Hello World"; $str = "##\tUse the function trim to remove specific characters at both ends of the string####"; $new_text = trim($text); $new_binary = trim($binary); $new_hello = trim($hello); $new_str = trim($str,"#"); echo $new_text; //These are a few words :) ... echo $new_binary; //Example string echo $hello; //Hello World echo $new_str; //Use the function trim to remove specific characters at both ends of the string ?>
The above functions are also applicable to ltrim() and rtrim(), these two functions
1. ltrim(); delete the blank character (or other characters) at the beginning of the string
2. rtrim(); delete the blank character at the end of the string (or other characters)
At this point, basically the PHP string manipulation function has reached a paragraph. In the next article, we will start to summarize and sort out.
