Description:
------------
the STRPOS format is different than almost every other, which is to my personal opinion odd. str_replace and in_array for example have the source variable in the last part of the function (in_array($this, $source), str_replace($this, $that, $source)) but strpos doesn't (strpos($source,$this)). 

Isn't this odd?

Actual result:
--------------
strpos($this, $source);

Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php

Weird or not, we can not change it.
