Thanks to everybody for your help. I ended up going with frank_rizzo's suggestion and I now have it working. I didn't even know about the rindex() function so that would probably be why I was trying to make it harder for myself than it had to be.

NAME
index, rindex - locate character in string SYNOPSIS
#include <strings.h> char *index(const char *s, int c); char *rindex(const char *s, int c); DESCRIPTION
The index() function returns a pointer to the first occurrence of the character c in the string s. The rindex() function returns a pointer to the last occurrence of the character c in the string s. The terminating null byte ('') is considered to be a part of the strings. RETURN VALUE
The index() and rindex() functions return a pointer to the matched character or NULL if the character is not found. ATTRIBUTES
For an explanation of the terms used in this section, see attributes(7). +------------------+---------------+---------+ |Interface | Attribute | Value | +------------------+---------------+---------+ |index(), rindex() | Thread safety | MT-Safe | +------------------+---------------+---------+ CONFORMING TO
4.3BSD; marked as LEGACY in POSIX.1-2001. POSIX.1-2008 removes the specifications of index() and rindex(), recommending strchr(3) and str- rchr(3) instead. SEE ALSO
