/*
   * Smarty plugin
   * Type: modifier
   * Name: substring
   * Version: 0.1
   * Date: 2006-16-02
   * Author: Thorsten Albrecht <thor_REMOVE.THIS_@wolke7.net>
   * Purpose: "substring" allows you to retrieve a small part (substring) of a string.
   * Notes: The substring is specified by giving the start  position and the length.
   * Unlike the original function substr() in PHP the position of the characters
   * in the string starts at 1 (not at 0 as usual in php).
   * Example smarty code:
   *   {$my_string|substring:2:4}
   *   returns substring from character 2 until character 6
   * @link based on substr(): http://www.zend.com/manual/function.substr.php
   * @param string
   * @param position: startposition of the substring, beginning with 0
   * @param length: length of  substring
   * @return string
   *
