Coder keeps flagging this, so I thought I'd ask about it. Following a parse_url() of a URL input from a form, is the use of drupal_substr() really necessary, or is a basic substr() adequate?

I believe if drupal provides a wrapper function, why not use it. Yes, drupal_substr is slower than substr itself with large amount of information to be processed and with multiple hits on a page, this can impact the page load time too.

Drupal's PHP wrapper functions (http://api.drupal.org/api/drupal/includes! common.inc/group/php_wrappers/7) usually about calling the right PHP function that support UTF-8.
Eh, more information on that link (about RFC handling of url thing that I dunno).

What is the coder message? I see nothing about drupal_substr in the http://drupal.org/update/modules/6/7 page. Coder is very imperfect so maybe it is a bug. I opened several issues last month.
