[code=php]
<?php

$var = "#star";
if(preg_match("#", $var)){
$new = preg_replace("#", "" , $var);
}else{
echo("Does not contain a #");
}

echo($var);
?>
[/code]



This may or may not work, untested.

@amrigoauthorOct 04.2006 — can i use just string functions ?

eg. : #start one text for test one text for test one text for test #end another text for test another text for test another text for test

so io get just :

one text for test one text for test one text for test

[code=php]
function find($start, $end, $string)
{
if(false !== ($pos = strpos(strtolower($string), strtolower($start))))
{
if($remove = stristr(($cropped = substr($string, $pos + strlen($start))), $end))
{
return trim(str_replace($remove, '', $cropped));
}
}
return false;
}

$string = "#start one text for test one text for test one text for test #end another text for test another text for test another text for test";
echo(find("#start", "#end", $string));
[/code]

Success!
