mb_strcut extracts a substring from a string similarly to
mb_substr, but operates on bytes instead of characters. If the
cut position happens to be between two bytes of a multi-byte character, the cut is
performed starting from the first byte of that character. This is also the difference
to the substr function, which would simply cut the string between
the bytes and thus result in a malformed byte sequence.
&reftitle.parameters;
str
The string being cut.
start
If start is non-negative, the returned string
will start at the start'th byte position in
str, counting from zero. For instance,
in the string 'abcdef', the byte at
position 0 is 'a', the
byte at position 2 is
'c', and so forth.
If start is negative, the returned string
will start at the start'th byte
from the end of str.
length
Length in bytes. If omitted or NULL
is passed, extract all bytes to the end of the string.
encoding
&mbstring.encoding.parameter;
&reftitle.returnvalues;
mb_strcut returns the portion of
str specified by the
start and
length parameters.
