SYNOPSIS
int mb_strpos (string $haystack, string $needle, [int $offset], [string $encoding = mb_internal_encoding()])
DESCRIPTION
Finds position of the first occurrence of a string in a string.

position is 1, and so on.
PARAMETERS
o $haystack
- The string being checked.
o $needle
- The string to find in $haystack. In contrast with strpos(3), numeric values are not applied as the ordinal value of a character.
o $offset
- The search offset. If it is not specified, 0 is used.
o $encoding
-The $encoding parameter is the character encoding. If it is omitted, the internal character encoding value will be used.
RETURN VALUES
