If you're not looquing to duplicate the rest of the string, but instead just want the offset, in the spirit of the str*pos() functions, use strcspn()

A little modification to Evan's code to use an array for the second parameter :<?php

functionstrpbrcpos($s, $accept) {$r= FALSE;
  $t= 0;
  $i= 0;
  $accept_l= count($accept);

  for ( ;$i< $accept_l; $i++ )
    if ( ($t= strpos($s, $accept[$i])) !== FALSE)
      if ( ($r=== FALSE) || ($t< $r) )$r= $t;

    return $r;
}

?>
