mb_stristr — Finds first occurrence of a string within another, case insensitive
$haystack,$needle,$before_needle = false,$encoding = null
mb_stristr() finds the first occurrence of
needle in haystack
and returns the portion of haystack.
Unlike mb_strstr(),
mb_stristr() is case-insensitive.
If needle is not found, it returns false.

Be aware that if needle is an empty string, mb_stristr return the haystack by default.
For exemple:
<?php
if (mb_stristr("foo", "")) {
echo "We enter in condition";
}
?>
Because in the above exemple the return of mb_stristr is "foo".
So if we do not want this kind of behaviour, we must set the third argument, ($before_needle) to true.
<?php
if (mb_stristr("foo", "", true)) {
echo "We do not enter in condition";
}
?>
It can be useful to know it, specially when needle is dynamic.
