Subject: String function   to  Find how many times str2 is in str1?
Date: Fri, 15 Feb 2008 11:09:40 -0500
Message-ID: <47B5B944.4010203@encs.concordia.ca> (raw)

Good morning,

Is there a string function in PSQL to count how many times one str is in 
another string?

For example,
Str1 = "test   test   caa   dtest   testing   EndofString";
Str2 = "   ";

select funcName(Str1, Str2);

return 5

Because Str1 has 5 Str2.

Thanks !
Ly
