I have a piece of code, from this i want to remove some words from string but the trim() function is not showing proper output.
The code is below
<?php
$mystring = '/word-quotes-hope';
$findme = '/word-quotes-';
echo $str = trim($mystring, $findme);
?>
and its output is hop, but it should be hope
Its working example http://codepad.viper-7.com/FxLZkp
Anybody knows why this is happening.
Because trim uses the second string individual characters, not the whole string, and in your case it has an e in it, and the string ends with e so off it goes.
Try to use it with "ltrim"
echo $str = ltrim($mystring, $findme);
it will trims your string on "left"
