ctype_cntrl

(PHP 4 >= 4.0.4, PHP 5)

ctype_cntrl -- Check for control character(s)

Description

bool ctype_cntrl ( string text)

Returns TRUE if every character in text has a special control function, FALSE otherwise. Control characters are e.g. line feed, tab, esc.

Example 1. A ctype_cntrl() example

<?php
$strings
= array('string1' => "\n\r\t", 'string2' => 'arf12');
foreach (
$strings as $name => $testcase) {
   if (
ctype_cntrl($testcase)) {
       echo
"The string '$name' consists of all control characters.\n";
   } else {
       echo
"The string '$name' does not consist of all control characters.\n";
   }
}
?>

This example will output :

The string 'string1' consists of all control characters.
The string 'string2' does not consists of all control characters.
