deleting characters after comma

[cosmicstar23]

I have a string:

"WorldWatch, Tokyo"

Is there anyway I can delete everything after the comma including the
comma itself? Keep in mind that everything atfer the comma is
generated dynamically!

Thanks!

Read the manual on the functions stripos and substr.

as Geoff said, to do that, you should use strpos and substring
an example:
$str = 'WorldWatch, Tokyo';
$positionOfTheComma = strpos($str,',');
$strWithoutTheComma = substr($str, 0, $positionOfTheComma);
