Strip Letters from Variable 1

[RENO9]

I have variables pulled from a db which are similar to,
SA1
SA2
SA3
i am trying to remove the SA from the variable so im just left with 1,2 etc

Ive had a look at trim and split but unable to find a relevant example.

Are those the correct methods to go about it and if so how?

Thanks

Take a look at the [blue]substr()[/blue] I think it might do what you want.

Unknown has caused an Unknown Error on Unknown and must be shutdown to prevent damage to Unknown.

or str_replace() (replace "SA" with an empty string)

Thanks for the quick replies,

i got it sorted with,

$replace = str_replace("SA", "", $OldQuestionNumber);
