explode question

Hy,

I have and explode issue.

I need to brake a string by more than one separators:

EX: $vars = "var1/var2-var3/var4-var5-var6/var7"

from this i need do get every var so explode("/",$vars) or explode ("-",$vars) just wouldn't do it.

Many thanks

 

can you use str_replace?

 

I agree. DO something like this:

$vars = "var1/var2-var3/var4-var5-var6/var7";

$formattedVars = str_replace('-','/',$vars);

$array = explode('/',$formattedVars);

//or into a single statement
$array = explode('/',str_replace('-','/',$vars));

PHP:

 

You can also use preg_split()

$chunks = preg_split('/[\/-]/', $vars);

PHP:

 

never thought of that , stupid me.

many thanks.
