if object contains something

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:

HI,

I want to make an if statement that checks if an object (col_81) contains “specific text” but i can’t use “=” because the col_81 will contain other text.

if it does find the “specific text” i then want to remove it and echo the remaining text. Any ideas?

Thanks,
Josh

@NogDogJan 25.2008 — Do you really mean an "object" (an instantiated class), or are you talking about a string variable?

@izzysanimeauthorJan 25.2008 — sorry, string variable. it is variable that took content from a DB cell.

Success!
