PHP strpos() IS case sensitive for me

When I use strpos() it is case sensitive. Why? Isn't it not supposed to be?

PHP v5.3.8

$file_check_result = "%PDF-1.6 %âãÏÓ";
$test = strpos($file_check_result, "pdf");
echo $test;

Outputs nothing; if however I change pdf to PDF in strpos it shows position. Why?

Solution

  • stripos is the function that you are looking for. strpos is case sensitive
