| File:OOjs UI icon book-ltr.svg | This is a documentation subpage for Template:Str find. It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
Usage
{{Str find|text|sub_string}} = Position of first appearance of sub_string in text.
- Only searches first 50 characters of text. Returns -1 if sub_string not found in first 50 characters.
- Character position is 1 based (not 0 based as usual in calculations).
- Warning: if sub_string is empty, then this routine will return 1 !!! This case will often have to be handled specially.

Template:Strfind short can handle longer strings (<99 chars), and gives far better performance, especially for short strings.
