Template:Posnq/doc

Wrapper template for function posnq in Module:String2.


 * posnq (position, no quotes) returns the numerical start position of the first occurrence of one piece of text ("match") inside another ("str").
 * It returns nil if no match is found, or if either parameter is blank.
 * It takes the text to be searched in as the first unnamed parameter, which is trimmed.
 * It takes the text to match as the second unnamed parameter, which is trimmed and any double quotes " are stripped out. That allows spaces at the beginning or end of the match string to be included in a consistent manner.
