Re: [PHP] Re: php4 vs. php5

[Keith Proctor]

I need to add two numbers together, unfortunately one of them is a  
string that starts with a character.  I'd like to convert a string  
such as 'x5' to the number 5.  Don't care about it's final type as  
that isn't the hard part. :)  I can't find a function to do this.  I  
looked in the math class and in the string class and there doesn't  
seem to be something to help.  I, of course, could write something to  
handle it but I would prefer to use something built in.  Any help  
would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Keith
