PHP equivalent of Oracle command INSTR

[sarah]

Hi ALL!

Yes, I know its been awhile, been sooo busy, anyways jus a quickie:

I am still teaching myself PHP and I'm a bit stuck, I wanted to know if there was an equivalent command in PHP for INSTR which is used in Oracle.

INSTR - gets a character(s) in a string

i.e:
INSTR('abcd','a')=a

Is there a PHP way of doing this?

Thanks
Luv Sarah
