Php - String Search

$string = '$12.50 - This is my string';

This is my string & I want remove section from $ to first space using php string function. I have tried substr but it returns me string after $.

Output should be as below:

- This is my string

In some cases there is no $ sign ain first place of string so in those cases "This" is removed from string.

You can use explode.

$string = '$12.50 - This is my string';
$test = explode(" ", $string, 2);
echo $test[1];

Using preg_replace: 

$string = '$12.50 - This is my string';

echo preg_replace('/^(.*?)\s/', '', $string);

$sub = substr($string, strpos($string, " "));

You may need to use strpos($string, " ") + 1 depending on if you want that extra space.

(strpos finds the first occurence of a character.)
