        Function StripLastChar( $file ){
                $fp = fopen("$file","r");
                if ($fp){
                        $contents = fread($fp,100000);
                        fclose($fp);
                }
                $contents = eregi_replace("o$","",$contents);
                return $contents;
        }

Hi all,

        The problem is nearly solved.  I need my if statement to read the
last character from the file & if it ends with an o, then remove the one
character.  My current if statement allows the action to take place if there
is an o anywhere in the file.  Can somebody help me with this.

My current if statement looks like this:

if (eregi (".*\b",$port)){
        $port=substr($port,0,(strlen($port)-1));
        }

Thanks alot
Dave

Try:

$string="Jacko";
$string=substr($string,0,(strlen($string)-1));
echo $string;
