yeah, like strpos() you still could have gotten from the manual.
strncmp() does it exactly, like strpos() but only searches the beginning,
note that it returns false for matching strings for use in some sorting functions.
<?php
$testip = "150.200.250.x";
$match = "150.200.250.";
if (!strncmp($testip, $match, strlen($match)))
{
echo("ok, " . $testip . " matches");
}
?>
