(PHP 5)
stripos — Findet das erste Vorkommen eines Strings, unabhängig von Groß- und Kleinschreibung
Gibt die numerische Position des ersten Vorkommens von needle innerhalb des Strings haystack zurück.
Im Gegensatz zu strpos() ist stripos() unabhängig von Groß- und Kleinschreibung.
Die Zeichenkette, in der gesucht werden soll.
Beachten Sie, dass needle eine Zeichenkette von einem oder mehreren Zeichen sein kann.
Ist needle kein String, wird der Parameter in einen Integerwert konvertiert, der dem Ordinalwert des Zeichens entspricht.
Der optionale Parameter offset erlaubt Ihnen anzugeben, ab welchem Zeichen in haystack die Suche begonnen werden soll. Die zurückgegebene Position bezieht sich jedoch auf den Anfang von haystack.
Wenn needle nicht gefunden wird, gibt stripos() den boolean-Wert FALSE zurück.
Diese Funktion kann sowohl das boolsche FALSE zurückliefern, als auch einen nicht-boolschen Wert, wie zum Beispiel 0 oder "", der von einem einfachen if-Statement als FALSE ausgewertet wird. Weitere Informationen entnehmen Sie bitte dem Abschnitt über die boolschen Typen. Benutzen Sie deshalb den === Operator, um den Rückgabewert dieser Funktion zu überprüfen.
Beispiel #1 stripos()-Beispiele
<?php
$findmich = 'a';
$meinstring1 = 'xyz';
$meinstring2 = 'ABC';
$pos1 = stripos($meinstring1, $findmich);
$pos2 = stripos($meinstring2, $findmich);
// 'a' ist natürlich nicht in 'xyz' enthalten
if ($pos1 === false) {
echo "Die Zeichenkette '$findmich' kommt nicht im String '$meinstring1' vor.";
}
// Beachten Sie die Verwendung von ===. Ein einfaches == funktioniert nicht wie
// erwartet, da 'a' an Position 0 (also erster!) Stelle steht
if ($pos2 !== false) {
echo "Die Zeichenkette '$findmich' wurde in '$meinstring2' an Position $pos2 gefunden";
}
?>
Hinweis: Diese Funktion ist binary safe.
Just a friendly hint:
I came across to this scenario, check to see if an URL string contains http, if no then prepend "http" to the URL string
<?php
$url = (stripos($url,"http")==false) ? "http".$url : $url;
?>
now, this will always add the http:// to the URL string even the URL string already has http
It is because stripos($url,"http") will return false if no http found, and stripos($url, "http") will return 0 if it is found (being at the start of the string) , and (0==false) is a true condition
therefore, to fix this problem, we have to use (===) to compare the value type as well:
<?php
$url = (stripos($url,"http")===false) ? "http".$url : $url;
?>

function "stripos" not working in php file without .php extension. Returns error. Seems to be a bug.
To ensure that stripos works in all php version/platforms in files without .php extension, use the following code:
strpos(strtolower($haystack), strtolower($needle), [ $offset = 0 ] )
The mail validator example is NON CONFORMANT with SMTP mail RFCs. Valid characters for Internet e-mail address are more than the ones listed here. Implementing such lame validator is a big disservice to the whole Internet.
Those interested can read RFC 5322. In short, the valid characters are different on both sides of the @ sign, so, before applying this fast technique the address should be exploded into the two side strings, and then, use different valid character strings for the local-part and the domain.
A local part can be any alphabetic or digit US-ASCII character plus "!#$%&'*+-/=?^_`{|}~", and then, if it is enclosed in double-quotes ("), it can be any US-ASCII character except double-quote (") and back-slash(\).
The domain can be any printable US-ASCII characters not including "[", "]", or "\".
And then, this could be overridden with the advent of internationalized domains, that can use UTF-8 character sets.
Implementation of the validator is left as an exercise for the reader.
Fast email validator using stripos to check for valid characters.
<?php
function validate_email($value) {
$chars="ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ".
"abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789@._";
$at=0; /* at sign */
$dot=0; /* dot after at */
$end_pos = strlen($value)-1;
for ($i=0;$i<strlen($value);$i++) {
$c = $value[$i];
if (stripos($chars, $c)===false) return false;
if ($c=="@") $at++;
if ($at==1 && $c==".") $dot++;
if ($at>1) return false;
/* Don't start or end with an '@' or a '.'
* No @'s or .'s next to each other.
*/
if (($c=="." || $c=="@") &&
($i==0 || $i==$end_pos || $prev_c=="." || $prev_c=="@"))
return false;
$prev_c=$c;
}
return ($at==1 && $dot>0);
}
?>
I found myself needing to find the first position of multiple needles in one haystack. So I wrote this little function:
<?php
function multineedle_stripos($haystack, $needles, $offset=0) {
foreach($needles as $needle) {
$found[$needle] = stripos($haystack, $needle, $offset);
}
return $found;
}
// It works as such:
$haystack = "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.";
$needle = array("fox", "dog", ".", "duck")
var_dump(multineedle_stripos($haystack, $needle));
/* Output:
array(3) {
["fox"]=>
int(16)
["dog"]=>
int(40)
["."]=>
int(43)
["duck"]=>
bool(false)
}
*/
?>
@henke:
No. It does NOT make a warning if the needle isn't found. This is false.
This function will raise a warning if the needle was not found. Be sure to use @ to suppress it if you want the strpos like behavior of only returning false.

Fine but not useful if you want to use stripos 3rd param òffset´ for instance to find all occurences of `needle´.
Again rchillet and heavyraptor solution is best though you'd better keep to-lowercase strings outside the function if you're planning to loop through `haystack´ like this:
$lower_haystack = strtolower($haystack);
$lower_needle = strtolower($needle);
$offset = 0;
//... looping over haystack
while ($offset !== false) {
$offset = strpos($lower_haystack, $lower_needle, $offset);
//... some funny stuff here
}
Using rchillet-heavyraptor function here would slow down performance. Solution: don't invent any function
Yet another stripos for php4 alternative:
<?php
function stripos($haystack, $needle){
return strpos($haystack, stristr( $haystack, $needle ));
}
$strTest = "The brown fox jumped over the Fence";
echo stripos($strTest, 'fence');//30
?>
(i'm very sorry for some mistakes in my yesterday's post :'[ )
this would to work with any language, i hope.
tested on czech (eastern europe) lang.

I recommend using the solution by rchillet for <PHP5
michiels solution is quite slow if you use it for long strings or call it many times.
Since the stripos-function is PHP5-only, the function below could give PHP4-users the same functionallity:
function stripos($string,$word)
{
$retval = false;
for($i=0;$i<=strlen($string);$i++)
{
if (strtolower(substr($string,$i,strlen($word))) == strtolower($word))
{
$retval = true;
}
}
return $retval;
}
improvement the function of heavyraptor with int offset parametre.
if (!function_exists("stripos")) {
function stripos($str,$needle,$offset=0)
{
return strpos(strtolower($str),strtolower($needle),$offset);
}
}
If you're using PHP < 5, you can use this alternate function, same thing like stripos:
<?php
if (!function_exists("stripos")) {
function stripos($str,$needle) {
return strpos(strtolower($str),strtolower($needle));
}
}
?>
Such a logical function but I hope it helps ...
Just to be explicit, the position index returned by strpos starts at 0, not 1. e.g. strpos('abc','a') returns 0.
This functionality is now implemented in the PEAR package PHP_Compat.
