Thanks Rob, but is there a way use this Or remove the last character of $str : substr($str, length($str) - 1, '') to remove the last and first in one line?

`$s = substr $s, 1, -1;` Nice. I didn't know that would work. I would have done it as: `$s = substr $s, 1, length($s) - 2;` [download] But I've read the documentation, now ;-) Cheers, Rob	[reply] [d/l] [select]
