Question

I would like to do a sort of a rtrim on a string until a specific character like a ” ” (space)

input: “Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing el”

output: “Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing”

Tried several things but they all seem to work the other way around…

Thanks in Advance

Peter

Answer 1

Did you try this?

$string = 'Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing el';
$strlen = strlen($string);
$length = strrpos($string, ' ');

if ($length === FALSE) {
  $length = $strlen;
}

$result = substr($string, 0, $length);
