Not quite sure what's happening here, the docs for strpos() say:

"Returns the position as an integer. If needle is not found, strpos()
will return boolean FALSE."

Looks fine, I can simply do:

if(strpos("michael", "m")

But then the docs go on to say:

"This function may return Boolean FALSE, but may also return a non-
Boolean value which evaluates to FALSE, such as 0 or "". Please read
the section on Booleans for more information. Use the === operator for
testing the return value of this function."
...
I only want a function to tell me if the string was found (>= 0), I
don't care which position it was etc

Use: if (strpos("michael", "m") !== False) ...

Thanks ljb
