bool ctype_graph (string $text) DESCRIPTION
Checks if all of the characters in the provided string, $text, creates visible output. PARAMETERS
o $text - The tested string. RETURN VALUES
Returns TRUE if every character in $text is printable and actually creates visible output (no white space), FALSE otherwise. EXAMPLES
Example #1 A ctype_graph(3) example <?php $strings = array('string1' => "asdf ", 'string2' => 'arf12', 'string3' => 'LKA#@%.54'); foreach ($strings as $name => $testcase) { if (ctype_graph($testcase)) { echo "The string '$name' consists of all (visibly) printable characters. "; } else { echo "The string '$name' does not consist of all (visibly) printable characters. "; } } ?> The above example will output: The string 'string1' does not consist of all (visibly) printable characters. The string 'string2' consists of all (visibly) printable characters. The string 'string3' consists of all (visibly) printable characters. NOTES
Note If an integer between -128 and 255 inclusive is provided, it is interpreted as the ASCII value of a single character (negative val- ues have 256 added in order to allow characters in the Extended ASCII range).
